color schemes

what would you guys think if i were to paint the white strip in between the red on my truck black? ive seen chevy's and ford's done like this, never a dodge. you can see what it looks like now in my picture gallery, and imagine what it would be with the black lol or if anyone is good at paint and wants to give me a visual that'd be great too.

Red and black look good together. I think The metallic black you see on new chargers and challengers would look real sharp.

Send a message via AIM to Crossy's son
personally i love white/red and don't know why you'd ever get rid of it.

One of the best color combo's ever.....IMO

but red/gloss black look good
