to each his own i guess

Just another idea I chopped up to consider, I like how the plain black is looking on the front. it's a crappy chop, but I think it's a cool concept that could make a truck look really unique is pulled off right

Re: got my truck painted (: I like what your doing with this truck. Flat paint FTW!

i think it kind of looks like you have a glass roof.

Re: got my truck painted (: It looks unfinished. Why would you do a paint with pearl in it with no clear? It seems like it would give it more of a primer look, which I can't stand

here's my last one before it was wrecked. i painted it 8 days before it was totalled. but it looks just like yours. hrf copper pearl
