Re: paint scheme
I like the colors, but not the layout. Follow the body line with the color transition, no dip above the rear wheels...that is where I would start

Re: paint scheme
I love the scheme but yes should follow the body line. I dont even think the dip would be bad I mean what can I say, my pin stripe turns into flames above the back wheel. Just cant see it well.

Re: paint scheme
Yeah i like the 2nd one better if you want to do the dip down thing i would do it on the front part of the bed or on the tailgate maybe.

Re: paint scheme
I like your second pic, but carry the white all the way down to the pinch weld.

Re: paint scheme
the white is suposed to be all the way down to the pinch weld, but i dont know how to shade it to make it look good, so i just went half way down.

Re: paint scheme
i think following the body line and still doing the dip would look cool. also center the dip over the rear wheel

Re: paint scheme
What about red stripes? Kind of brings back a little bit of the old sports package theme imao
