Re: Wondering what I should paint my truck
One color or two tone? Body trim or not? It makes a difference.

Re: Wondering what I should paint my truck
I saw a K5 blazer last month that looked almost black but it was metallic green and it had a creamy tan top "BEAUTIFUL". I took a picture with my flip phone and you can barely tell it's a 1st gen blazer. Time for a better phone. Sooo... YES GREEN.

Here is a poll showing that more of us prefer the greens. 101 voters and 43.88% prefer green paint. Quote:
