I am considering a few more colors to repaint my pink truck. my last poll was just OD or white, but I may get another color. I have examples to follow.

I had to paint my truck a lighter color because they said it would show less of the imperfections...so I went with a light grey...

What else do you plan on doing to it? Are you going to follow a theme like chrome or blacked out etc? Or just gonna give a new color...

chrome depends on the color I go with... for most of the colors, I'll probably keep the chrome, but with OD or tan, I'm probably going to black out the trim if I go with tan, might see if I can find this smokey metallic tan I saw somewhere a long time ago for the trim.. I dunno. I'm not going to do much aesthetically beyond that. I don't ave a lot of extra money to toss around, I just don't want to have a pink truck for the long term, so I'm springing for paint.

in time, I'd like to build a custom nudge bar w/lights, upgraded ignition, e-fan conversion, headers, and high flow cats.

my truck needs a bit of body work before it gets paint haha , what you cant see that is on the drivers side is rust spots on the doors and bed, and almost the whole roof is surface rust, and the tailgate is bent haha.

yeah my bumper is bent up in the middle because I was coming off of a trail not to far from my house and there is a 3 foot hill when you come off the trail to the road, and I came down that hill a little bit fast and the bumper hit the road bending it up in the middle haha
