"New" Square two-tone
I am gauging interest in these builds being done by some inventive Chevy Dealers. I am building one on a 2015 double cab.
Two Tone is a wrap. painted factory wheels, level kit. What do you think? If not allowed because not tech 73-87, I am sorry.

Re: "New" Square two-tone
I think doing it as a wrap is a great idea. Get tired of it, peels right off.
I think I'd have to see it in person. Definitely has potential. |

Re: "New" Square two-tone
Personally, I love this idea. If I were in the market for a new truck, without a doubt it would be a new Silverado with a two tone wrap like this. I have seen several variants of this since the first truck was done and blew up on social media. I actually like the one below a little better. It gives you that classic look but flows better with the lines of the new truck. I know as a wrap this version complicates things slightly because now you have to wrap the door handles as well, but I think it's worth it.

Re: "New" Square two-tone
I’m on the fence on this
I like it but the new Silverado I am getting will be white so not sure how to pull that off

Re: "New" Square two-tone
I like it - just two points I would be pose - what about tinting the top part of the taillight assembly to blend it with the blue a little bit, and the tailgate looks a little animated. I don’t know if you can or would even want to fix those, otherwise I really like the truck!

Re: "New" Square two-tone
Hills Hot Rods hit the nail on the head with this one. Not really a fan of the "make your new truck look like an old truck" thing, but the later two tone scheme works well.

Re: "New" Square two-tone
I'm not sure I like the yellow stripe. Overall though I think it's nice and a cool way to customize yur truck.
Personally my '16 will stay white so we can keep calling it fridge. Which is funny since our fridge is black.

Re: "New" Square two-tone
Im being picky but that bodyline striping should have gently followed the front edge of the fender flare all the way down-otherwise looks pretty good imo

Re: "New" Square two-tone
Isn’t that an 80s tailgate image with a 70s panel?

Re: "New" Square two-tone
I'm digging the black/silver one a lot. Not sure about the chrome strip that they added but I like the rest.
