Paint! Not getting much response from the "Body" Section, Run it through here!!

Once the weather is right I plan on doing some paint upgrade to my truck. 2001 XLT. (Picture Below) I am basing what I want off of the King Ranch Edition of this truck. I ordered some factory matched paint to the Arizona Beige Metallic color, some primer, and clear. Here is what I plan on painting with that color.

Honeycomb Grill
Front Bumper, Above and Below Chrome
Fender Flares
Rear Bumper Plastic

I also want to do the lower part of the truck below the door trim for the two tone look. The thing I'm worried about is ending up with a paint ridge at the top of the paint where I'll mask it off. Is there a way to avoid the paint ridge??

Let me know what ya think and drop some ideas / pointers if you want! Espcially about the paint ridge!

For the two tone paint line, Ford uses a vinyl pinstripe that you can buy which is expensive or you can buy some at most parts stores.
