I am at that point where my truck really needs painted but Im thinking about having some fun with it ? I have always had shiny vehicles my whole life for the simple reason that a paintjob is the simplest and easiest thing you can do ! if I change my mind all I have to do is repaint the truck which it need's anyway ! so it's no harm done and may be fun , im thinking about not painting my truck and im thinking about a shop logo and just keep driving it ! here is a paint shop Ive mocked up I think im gonna have this done I have never tried to paint anything like this so this is one time im gonna have it done ,,,, check it out and let me know what you think ,,,,,

Great job!

I dont see anything wrong with the paint on the truck as is!

Paint is simple and easy but not cheap. Body work is neither.

I guess what I meant was where I can do bodywork and paint myself for me it's cheap easy and simple , I can paint a car or truck cheaper than rebuilding the engine ? cheaper than buying new wheels and tires ? it's not a big deal to me , my truck need's almost no bodywork I did all the bodywork on it in 07 and it's still straight but the paint is not fresh anymore ,,,

Shoot, go for it. It's nothing that can't be reversed later on. Even a white top will freshen up the look and can be taken off later if you wanted.
