agree 100% with likaroc. Black if the top wasn't white, so that leaves white (my 2 cents only). Truck has so much blue, color-matched would maybe be a bit too much. I'm a fan of white steelies (but am biased...).

Personally, I really like the slots better than moons (minus the white drums and center caps), but that's just personal preference. You can't go wrong, great looking panel you got there!

One question - you mentioned the wheel arch being smaller than a truck - are you referring to JUST a longbed truck, or all? (as far as I knew, I thought longbed wheel arch was just a little bigger, about 3", than a shortbed - so if yours is smaller than a truck - I would have assumed it matched a shortbed arch??? Is it smaller than even a shortbed?
