Try blue stripe. Place the stripe thin, like a 1/4", and move it down on the black an inch or so. Look at the old doge power wagon from the hit 80's show Simon & Simon.

agree..... The solid black bottom would be easier to touch up as needed, too
Natural oak would look good for sides of bed, too....

that's a nice color scheme with the orange stripe. #8 looks very nice as well.
while you're playing with photoshop, i'd suggest doing the following combos:
1, orange stripe scheme with a thin black line added above to sandwich in the orange stripe. maybe try orange wheels too.
2, orange stripe moved up a couple inches and continued across the horizontal flatbed rail to tie the front in with the back.
3, #8 scheme with a black lower section, tan wheels and tinted windows.
4, white top/black bottom, black bed wheels and windows, gray wood.
5, very light gray top and bed, black bottom, and black or dark gray wood.

the last two are colors from urban camo.

Not sure I dig the stripe, unless you do something with that color on the hood also. I put bed liner on the bottom of my truck, hold up well, and is very easy to touch up.

Definitely #6, or at least something with a nice bright orange.

Hey Brandon, ...I know it's probably a pain, so don't worry if you don't wanna. But, if you will, could you do one with that same design with orange(just like with the trailer)... but put a similar but a lil smaller red stripe just above the orange? hahhaha. Just really would like to see that, ...I think it would be awesome!

5: Black Cab/Wood, Desert Tan Bed
6: Black Cab/Wood, Bright Orange Bed (Philadelphia Flyers Colors, Girlfriend is a fan)
7: Similar to #3 but with OD wheels. (by request)
8: Desert Tan Cab/Bed w/ Black wood. (suggested)

Any other ideas, I could entertain as well and if possible I will photochop then up too.

I am leaning towards the Black/Goldish and the Black OD Green which I think looks pretty sick.



how did you do this???? i would love to do this for my truck as i am trying to find the right color for my truck as well
