Nothing wrong with it being off center IMO. Some strategically placed pinstripes and / or logos from sponsors and you'd never see it. If you were to run a line from the center of the nose of the surfboard to the tail at the longest point of the board, then yes .. it's off. Worth repainting ? .. I'm not sure. If it were the same distance from the nose as it is on the tail, would it be too much white?

I think it looks more like a surfboard and sort-of an offset paint theme like it is ? Maybe have him do the pinstriping to compliment it .. or a gold / tan (match the interior) section between the colors to overlay the difference and straighten it back out ?

CC69Rat · 09-21-2012, 11:00 AM

.. or mirror the white to the other side of the surf board too ?

**67cheby** · 09-21-2012, 11:01 AM

**67cheby** · 09-21-2012, 11:02 AM

i guess the round end and the pointed end throws me off !

CC69Rat · 09-21-2012, 11:03 AM

WOW ! Illusion maybe ?

AHHH! You had him repaint it !

BB72CHEVKT · 09-21-2012, 11:06 AM

Optical illusion I guess???? I wondered if that was the case when I replied but it did look crooked to my eye.

CC69Rat · 09-21-2012, 11:06 AM

That dude does some really nice work. What type of paint was used on it? What .. ahem, .. color code?

**67cheby** · 09-21-2012, 11:11 AM

LOL....well the paint is BASF

Pretty sure I know what it is .. but not going to post. I'll PM if you want, but it's cool you want to keep it on the DL. I would too.

truckzilla · 09-21-2012, 12:11 PM

Isn't that glossy paint going to be slippery when it gets wet when you use it?
Or is the lettering going to be that non-slip stuff?

I guess nothing a few pieces of grip strips to the bottom of your feet shouldn't cure! Surf on dude!

watahyahknow · 09-21-2012, 11:18 AM

he couldve made the board look a little nicer , make scalops on it or the inside white with a bleu edge , it wouldnt have been that mush work
oh whell , where you planning on mounting it on a bedrack on one side of the bed , that might explain the choice

**67cheby** · 09-21-2012, 11:22 AM

The board is a Sponsor / Truck information board, All of the Basic info about the truck and all of the sponsors logos and custom pinstriping all hand lettered are all being done by TXPINSTRIPER a fellow boardmember ! So most of it will be covered !

**67cheby** · 09-21-2012, 11:23 AM

Oh and yes we are building a custom rack to mount the board on this weekend !

**superflysteiny** · 09-21-2012, 12:20 PM

Looks good and I love the board
