OK sorry about the lighting. I have seen this before but never had my camera. Thursday morning I saw it in Delta and took pics. Not sure of the close up quality but I like the color and way it looks. Seems like a nice job on two tone and the lines look good!

It don't look bad. Needs bigger tires though. Looks weird with those Honda civic size ones. I'd drive it though.
 
There is a black and silver truck here. Makes me think they fixed rust in it and did not want to paint the whole thing.
 
I don't hate the paint. I hate the possibility of it having fiberglass flares/runnign boards, cause those suck.

But, the paint scheme that mimics 2 tone and big (bushwacker) height flares looks good. I had a 97 Burb white with black factory flares. Looked good.
 
Yea no fiberglass flares it is all done by paint. I just like the way the lines of it flow and in day light the color too. I tried to get picture to show it wasn't a flare kit.

Some paintjobs, are altitude specific,IMO.

Meaning: That looks better way up high.
Whereas, some paint looks better down low.

The paint on my C/10 is just average, maybe "neat" if you will...
But, slam it... Give it that attitude with altitude, and the paint looks killer.

It's weird what a difference stance makes.
 
Did you take those pictures with a Walkman!?!?!?
:dunno:

It was 4 am I had been up 28 hours and driving for most of the day. Not sure what the walkman means I am an old fart and need splaining to on you young uns slang.

This the new body style scheme. It looks OK on them, not so much on this older style.
It's mostly because we're used to a certain style and we can't change easily.
If it was an all new scheme based on the body lines it might be better.
