Yup. Don't like it.

Here is another option... I'm not crazy about it but It seemed to go with you design...



Just thought I would play with your truck a little....

The middle scheme is best as the eye flows easily across the truck. The other idea is neat and different, but aesthetically it's hard on the eyes.

Oilguy's photochop looks pretty cool, but you 'd have to paint 2 colors then.
First blush, the black bed looked pretty good, unique, but anyone who knows what the truck's supposed to look like would know you just slapped a black box on a factory red/black, doesn't look so good after staring at it for a while.
I'm not real big on 2 tone paint, but really like the older Dodges like yours and the middle pice w/ black top, color bottom.
IMO, put it back to the orig 2 tone. For what you'd spend to prep/paint the inside of the box, get a spray in liner.
