Re: Pick my Paint!

I think if your going two tone and not using the 73-80 trim ( )you need to break it high. Your better off if you avoid trying to break the paint on the fenders.

Re: Pick my Paint!

GM silver birch metallic with the 81-91 side molding.

Jet stream blue off the new Corvettes would be sweet. If the interior is blue and you plan to keep it, it could work out well.

A couple of simple solid color ideas. I'm having a hard time envisioning a two tone break up on the rear fenders that I like.

Yeah, the duallys break fairly high with the color separation just gracing the tops of the fenders. The fenders typically match whatever the middle/lower color is.
