Default Custom paint ?

I'm going to lift my truck another 2inches so it will be a 10inch overall. Since it's a show truck I'm plaining on painting the undercarriage a silver glossy look and the rims will have a glossy silver look to. Will that look good? Or what color should I do. Here's a idea.

I would go dark shade of any color. The rest of your truck is pretty dark so a lighter color might be too much.

If your a show truck, are your tires and rims show mounted? that means that your valve stems are in the same spots as the beginning of writing on your tire. judges don't give many points to a painted frame, unless you sand it and smooth it.... that usually runs more than your grill and wheels combined. I would recommend led accents.

I like the idea, and silver is an easy color to keep clean.

I'm not worried about the price I already know about what the cost is. And yes they are I know all about show trucks. I'm getting my truck done at one of the best shops in texas. They have won every show they been in.
