I can't find dark stone color from dupli-color. Guess I'm outa luck on wanting to do this myself unless I have a paint shop custom mix my color for extra money.

What primer did you use? Are you concerned about chipping without adding some sort of flex agent?

I used Duplicolor Filler Primer. I'm not too worried about chipping, I can just redo it. I didn't want to spend $150 at a body shop. I figured for $25 I could see how it works out.

That sucks. My neighbor has Darkstone and I was trying to talk him into doing it.

That really looks great! I would like to do that to my truck! Ford should have doen that on all of them, but guess it just costs so much more. So much more to inventory and in the right numbers!
