Looks Grabber Blue to me
but one question: why did you keep the door handles on?
It looks nice, especially with the mesh grille and roll pan

X2 on the handles.. And just asking why didn't you take the grill and corner lights off as well. And the top pads off the bed sides.. You did a great job looks good but if it was me I would have wend the extra mile and took the doors off and did the jams all in one shot and all of the above.. The key to a good paint job is perp. Cutting corners never works..

The handles are going to be replaced with Chrome , as for shooting it all in the same session I had to work with what time I had and masking the stripe inside the door was a royal pita, and time was a major factor. On a seperate note, I need wheel ideas.

I kept the top pads on the bed rails black, the rock guards on the rear, and the front bumper above and below the Chrome to have a somewhat stock appearance, I'm just weird that way. I plan on either a color matched topped or hard cover, then carpeting my bed in the near future.

Been a few weeks since I've done anything with the F, so I thought I would update with hood I scooped up from Craigslist for less than half of what it would have cost me new. Paint it to match and got it installed.
