Black and orange - reminds me of Halloween....!

Since you already have the green I think you should keep the trim and do
the classic GM 2-tone scheme like this, nothing beats it,
and its a long bed to boot!

I was trying to be nice and not say that, but you are correct. Harley or Halloween, either way I don't care for it combined.

I like that. A lot. I didn't know what your truck looked like under the photoshop, but that one really looks good.

I would do a dark grey stripe to break it up.

jdurant · 06-05-2009, 03:31 PM

I think the Harley thing is done beyond death. And I think in almost all cases the lighter color should be on top. If for no other reason, but to reflect the heat out of the cab. I really like the truck that blazn79 posted. For some reason that green works for lwbs.
Your truck is a great color now. I think you should keep the green and the trim.

I would kill for a trimmed out 73-79 short bed or crew cab.

I personally love the black and orange color combo but I think that the colors shoud be solid colors not solids and metallics.
