Any pictures of matte black trucks.

I want to know if there are any good looking matte black trucks out there.

Re: Any pictures of matte black trucks.

Haven't seen any matte black ones on any boards, but I did see a K truck in person at a local shop that was completely bed-linered. It was lifted maybe a foot, with 37"+ super-swamper-type tires. It looked, um, serious.

They are out there, though:

Re: Any pictures of matte black trucks.

A little surprised at myself as I find the matte black looks just as good looking on lowered street rods as the jacked up 4x4's. That's a nice look when done right. Looks like a Parkerized 1911.

Re: Any pictures of matte black trucks.

I like the look of Matte Black on the trucks but it seems like it hit or miss. Some look real good when done right and others look like beaters.

Re: Any pictures of matte black trucks.

Are you specifically looking for nice paint jobs, or just nice-looking matte black trucks?
