I understand where you are coming from. But why the blacked out theme? All I say is do something original and make it pop! Just flat black this black that now a days to me is like just seeing another black blob floatin' down the highway. Add some color to it! Just me though

if your gonna black it out, just re-do your black and flat black saleen graphics like someone else said. i think flat black would kill the clean look and cheapen it a bit. and maybe add a little color to the wheels like pmason did, simple but drastically makes it look better

Good luck J! It should be sweeeeet when you get done! I have been trying for a little under a year now to get into any magazine, on any page and its tuff stuff... I get the "no custom paint, and no real performance" speial at every show or phone call... Yet i see trucks in truckin' all the time that have no fancy paint and just the 'big 3' for performance, go figure its easy to get in when your coming from a big time shop. They should know by now the real trucks are from those of us who bust our ***' to build them, and drive them everyday. Not all of us get parts handed to us by vendors/manufacters'...

maybe i can get my hands in on this project this fall if your still going to Tech. I just bought a house in the LBK for this fall

you should white it out. you rarely see that. then take an accent color like electric blue and put it in the wheels and neon, then take an hdr photograph and send it in.

I don't think you'll be happy with all flat black. To me flat black is more of a rough and tough look and your truck will have too clean of a look to it to pull that off.
