Paint scheme
I need advice on a paint scheme.When I replaced the box on my truck,just by coincidence the box is black.Now that I'm looking into repainting, and a lot of people have told me to stick with the black box,red fenders and two tone cab.I got use to both scheme.My truck was two tone like 88bird(thanks for the pic).Would like to get others members feed back on which combo they like.

The red fenders on the black box looks kind cool.. I don't know if I would paint a red stripe on the box or not. ??????

Ok. I think the current look is unique, but not the best for your truck. Go with the 2 tone job! I love the black over red look!

Actually didn't turn out too bad. But I vote for 2 tone cause with the black box and red fender flares, you can tell you pieced it together.
