67 with 69-72 body side molding and 2 tone?

Has anyone done this? I really like the look of the two tone 69-72 and side molding but don't know how that would look with the 67-68 grill. I would like to try this but don't know if the grill would be better left body color or white. If white would that be too much as the white would be going all the way around the truck? Anyone tried this or got an opinion?

I guess this has never been done. Overhaulin used the bottom molding and two toned just the top with a paint line higher than the top molding would be. I was wanting to use the white in the middle like the 69-72 but can't figure how to make it work with a 67 grill.

Yea that's the idea. I think it would work great with the trim also. I just didn't think it would work with the grill painted white. Thank's, that's what I was looking for. May even be better with the grill surround trim to break the white in the front.

Nice thing about doing it without trim is that there isn't any trim to hold the road dirt/salt against the body.

That's exactly what I was looking for. Almost the same color I was considering also. I think I will do it. Thanks clos69
