Need Opinions; With Or Without?

I'm thinking of redesigning and redoing my Graphics but what does the majority think?



Without Graphics.







With Graphics?

I like them, they make the whole truck flow better. Plus they are unique and representative of you. It would be cool to change it up a bit too

Thanks for your input and yes, rest assure I'll tone down the checker a bit. I'm also looking for sponsors so there will be company/ies that will be using my truck as a billboard on wheels.

Hahaha, nah, but would like to add 1 or 2 name brands of the components that will be installed on my truck but not for free like I did with the 2006. I figured better get paid this time.

Talked to Dynatrac yesterday but they wanted exclusive rights to plaster their logo for a one time compensation of $500.

I kindly declined the offer.


I was think of doing something like this:

Looks good! But not good enough to just warrant $500...

I know that the checkered flag graphic means somthing to you but I like it without. Looks cleaner IMO.

Personally I like decals. Question, probably a dumb one but....why does this truck look like it has a Chevy bed on it? I don't really understand what's going on here. Lol

Legit question, but it's the other way around, 2007 and up GM trucks have the 2006 Ford F150 Ashley and Smith Baja Champions fender design.

I like the graphics, but mostly because every picture i've seen of your truck on here has them too haha. But i also read the story of your childhood too and I understand they have a strong meaning to you. So i'd say keep them it makes the truck flow better, it just looks like its missing something without them. It really helps it stand out and finishes it off nicely in my opinion.

I think it looks to plain without them, but a different design and maybe a more toned down style of checkered like in post #5 would look a lot better.

I am not a real fan of heavy graphics but your truck would look to plain without them. With the other aspects of the truck, ie. lights, lightbars, the front bumper, roll bar, spare tire carrier etc. the graphics just help tie the whole scheme together.

I like the clean white look with no decals...but that won't make you any money I guess. I'd put a set of matt black pocket flares on it. That would give it some punch.
