PTM or Black

I am thinking about buying a used cab high cap with yakima roof racks for my truck. The place that is selling it is a cap dealer and they said they could paint it for $200. I was thinking about just having them paint it black becuase it would match my wheels, and in the future i am goin to put black bushwacker fender flares, black out the bumpers, and black head lights. Also if i do PTM, the place is like two hours away, i would have to drive all the way out there for them too match the color then drive all the way out there again to pick it up two days later. So what should i do PTM or just Black? Here is a pic of my truck.(If any one is good with photoshop and can put a black cap up there that would be awsome)

Personally I would paint to match the truck's color, but as far as color matching...couldn't you give them your paint code?

x2 on the paint code from your door jam sticker. With all your future black mods...flares, bumper, headlights all that's on the lower half of the truck. I think the PTM will look best.

PTM. I bought a black A.R.E. hardcover and it just looks out of place. It will be ptm'd in spring even though I want to paint my fender flares n bed side caps black

PTM
I think the hard cover looks good black. But I think the cap would look to big and square.
