Well been thinkin about paint again and i pretty much got the whole thing figured out how I'm gonna do it.

Black and Gold two tone like the box but I will do a Gold insert on the hood in the center folowing the body lines and leaving the center rib Black.

Interior wise I will be going Spice for the most part with Black headliner,carpet, bottom carpet on the door panels, black switch covers, and I will recover the original seat in spice but the vinyl strips will be Black also. Might have some black on the headrests also just not sure how yet.

I figure this will tie the whole color scheme together inside and out but will still look factory but with a custom touch.

What are your thoughts?

I think that will look sweet and just enough custom touch to look stockish and make it stand out.

Gold paint makes the vehicle look too old. Besides that, anything chrome, black chrome, or black powder coat wont look as good against it.
