POLL: Help me decide what theme to paint my truck

I am fighting with myself to figure out what theme to paint my truck. Please help me out with what you guys think I should do. It is going to be a semi-daily driver and maybe cruise it to a couple shows.

I am torn because I like all of the choices. My Son (14yo) and Brother say I should do the 2 tone and leave the chrome. My Wife and my Buddy who is helping me with it wants me to go with the shaved chrome and paint it all orange with the very subtle ghost flames primarily on the hood and the fenders with maybe a lick or two going onto the doors.

The orange paint will actually be House of Kolors Tangelo Pearl and the White (if I go that route) would be a brite white with a couple coats of White Pearl over the top of it. The ghost flames will be very sublte, the kind where you have to look hard to see them. I am thinking of maybe a Gold pearl or maybe a Copper or darker Orange Pearl. I'd even be open to suggestions on the flame color as well.

I am looking to hold onto this truck for some time (I hope) and I like attention, and I am kind of leaning towards the all Tangelo with ghost flames. I might even think about adding some of the ghost flames to the dash somewhere??? Who knows, give me some ideas.

Mike
