I have an idea, I will draw it up and post it.

you should *ahem* "borrow" photoshop and give it a try all the features seem overwhelming at first but its pretty easy once you learn what does what.

I really like the design - however, it doesnt cover my problem areas- such as my gas tank door is the wrong color, the tailgate under the window is bubbling, and on the driver side there is a bubble where the sticker is at...

Thanks for all the effort - I really like those lines better

Someone photoshop a line that follows the contour of the fenders and lower doors and then the top from behind the back doors like a 1st gen...BUT...leave the back uprights behind the quarter glass up and over the back window in paint. Make sense?
So the darkness of the window would just continue in a stripe across the roof.
Also functional since the cargo carrying area of the roof would be protected.

Nope. more simple than that. the lower quarter of the truck and then over the wheelwells.
Then just follow the window over the roof at the back, leaving the rear uprights, rear doors, etc. in paint.

Imagine the glass was taken out and then just continue that line across the roof to the other side glass. Kind of like the gen 1 runners with the removeable top but leave the rear quarter uprights as if they were a roll bar. When I do a chop of the rear eventually, that is where I will cut out the glass and the roof--leaving the rear pillars, 3rd brake light and rear window. Just removing the glass and the roof between the two sides of glass. Make sense? You will need a pic looking down from above to chop my idea.

Go all Black. The black with the red looks really retro 80's. Unless you are into that. . .

Black out the back a la 4Hummer's chop. Photoshop #1.

Then uncover the rear uprights (pillars) and leave them painted red like a roll bar across the back. Photoshop#2
