body trim painting.
hey everybody,
so today i got a wild hair up my... well you now and I decided to re-paint the trim on my 76 silverado crew cab i only painted one piece (for now) I tryed to match the interior color (kinda)... I need to get some opinions on this and if i should continue and maybe some suggestions on what else to paint IE: door handles and misc... any critisism is fine I can handle it... thanks guys...

Re: body trim painting.
Eh, looks pretty good I guess. I'm a fan of the yellow in the '77 trim... I think that's still my favorite.

Re: body trim painting.
I like it. It puts more of a contrast to your trim so it shows better against the body color.

Re: body trim painting.

Re: body trim painting.
Black and red is the best color combo there is - looks nice.
