As you can see my pass side doesn't match the driver side :doah:
This is what started it all:

I want to rattel can it, for easy trail repair/touch up/cost ~ Alot of folks are doing olive drab so I'm getting turned off a bit but I like the OD w/black:

So what color?
Brown & green like the driver side?
All Brown?
Maybe a Drk Racing Green?
I know I like the darker colors..

Just getting prepared so if I get stuck drinking beer in the garage I will have atleast thought about it before I grab a spray can :haha:
Thanks for your opinions/comments.
 
You definitely are thinking right - rattle can just makes sense cause you use your Blazer offroad and it is gonna get scratched. I really like the olive drab even thought it gets used alot. I also like the light military tan. I don't think you can go wrong with either of those colors.

Course I really like your Blazer in brown too. How's that for indecisive!
 
do something bright, or atleast accent with bright colors like that dark green k5 with lime green tube work that was on petersons a few years back, I have a pic of it from moab if you wanna see
 
Mnorby ~ Ya I know wich one yer talking about.
I thought about doing the acent color thing...not sure wich to go with..

The brown dog's name is Blazer and the tan one is Charley :D

Blazer has a brendal coat black brown tan and I was thinking of trying to match my blazer but that would be alot of work and could turn into a total mess/waist of time :doah:

The accent color idea may be the way to go, instead of like a camo...:doah:
 
my k5 is hugger orange and I am painting my tube work black and stull like u-bolts, tie rods/ draglink, etc etc are all just walmart rattle can orange

maybe I got carried away with the orange.... :D

Thanks for the pics.
Anyone else have accent pics/ideas?

Copy those skulls and flames onto the driver's side and be done with it! :saweet:
 
No I don't think so Greg, way too flashy for me. I think I like more soild color and I don't want the paint to take away from the body lines like some camo jobs do!
 
Are you burnt-out on the factory brown-metallic?

It might be a nice tribute to paint it back to it's stock color (and shine) since it's been a part of your life for so long. :thinking:
 
The brown was on it when I bought the rig, the factory color is that light green color, I forget the name :doah:

If I go factory color it will be the 72dark green but then I would be affraid to hurt it:rolleyes:
