well im about ready to take the truck to the body shop and get it all painted up, but im looking for some opinions first. I'm going to do a black 20" wheel, and am curious how it would look if i could incorporate some black or flat black paint w/it, maybe do some peices like the headlight bezels/grilll moldings painted a flat black, however im thinking w/a chrome bumper right below it would probably look ****ty, i've just seen a few newer style hot rods (like foose builds) that incorporate new w/the old, but i cant decide.. the other peices i thought about having painted flat black would be the gauge cluster and glove box door. My other area im needing help in is the exact color, im torn between a plain white or the color "pikes peak white" my wifes 350z is pikes peak white, and i think it would look killer w/the black rims.. but its somewhat of a pearl/off white. Enough of me rambling on, im just looking for any ideas, i dont want some plain jane white truck when im done, also any pics of white step-sides would be muchly appreciated, thanks guys!!
