prep for paint

I am getting started on preping for painting my truck. It will be blue/white top. I would like to see where you guys are breaking the paint on the door facings. Do you continue the outside color to the door facing or is the interior color carry out to the door skin? I was thinking that the outside color should also go in side the door facing and the interior color should end with the door panels. Give me your opinion and some photos please! Thanks....

Re: prep for paint

Mine are done the same as not solo's truck, but I believe they may have been done different depending on where they were built. Mine was built in CA I believe, it has a Z for where built. I do not have a pictures of the doors, but the paint I believe stops just around the inside of the doors.

Re: prep for paint

Do you guys have a pic to show him where the white stops on the inner door skin? I think it stops on the edge of where the skin flange stops but I can't remember for sure.
