Re: Trying to decide on a color...Help please...
Midnight blue is a beutiful color. Especially with clearcoat. I think flat black is more of a custom rat rod chopped and lowered color. But on a lowered c10, it would just look to eh. Midnight blue is pretty, but look at patriot blue pearl. BEUTIFUL right?
Here is a nice flat black rat rod Let us know what you think! Sorry, but I dont do photoshop.

Re: Trying to decide on a color...Help please...
I love midnight blue! Especially on these new trucks....but...that's the problem, I think it's too common of a color. I kinda want the truck to be "different".
Same thing with the Spiral Gray and Flat Black, too common...Especially Flat Black, seems like it's now everyone's choice to spray before they decide on a real color for these trucks... So I've been trying to pick out the new Inferno Orange Metallic (IOM) on some new Camaros and Sonics while on the freeways/roads. 1 day I saw 3 orange camaros and 2 orange sonics. (pretty rare for one day Must I say that orange looks amazing! It really comes to life in the sun light! So I am kinda leaning towards Orange. Just because it's my favorite color, plus it looks so amazing in the sun! I've been hearing that it is a hard color to spray....so it will be a very expensive learning experience! But then again, what paint is easy to spray? haha Any way....If anyone could please photoshop that Orange on the 2nd pic of my truck. If you can't, I can take another pic or two with a different background..... Just let me know! Thanks in advance, Kris

Re: Trying to decide on a color...Help please...
That's awesome! Thank you sir! Looks a bit goofy with the wheels...Hmm...
I guess some nice chrome Boss 20's would set it off....or gray/chrome lip... Damn, what a money pit!
