PLAN B

This build was 2 parts 1 i have a truck I made to pretty to wheel so I'm building an ugly one I can actually enjoy. And 2. My cousin has been trying to join us for blazer bash but his truck wont be ready so we are surprising him with this one
Looking for opinions, (cosmetic stuff, judge me if you must)

Since i need to pull diff covers, tcase sheild, crossmembers and a couple other random parts..... im wondering if i should mix it up and do a bright accent color. Something that will pop.... or just stick with the gm blue i have been using on my diff covers?

Neon green?
Blue?
Red?
Thoughts??

Green (florescent/grabber/bright AF/whatever you want to call it) as an accent color has been done so many times that it is just ugly to me now...


Especially by Jeeps.


You have white as the main attraction, then GM blue...

Need to find a color that goes with both or change the blue and find two colors that jive well with white.

Yeah and i see so many beater cars and trucks with faded neon color highlights that look like crap because nobody kept up with it.

I was talking about changing out the blue all together, so it would be white, black and (insert highlight color here)


I may just stick with the simple gm blue then one day when i do something crazy with the paint on the body i can switch it up.
 
I love bright colors . But the neon stuff fades way to quick and looks uneven if one side is in the sun too long or something.

So I'd stick with blur
 
I don't count the black. Things that are just meant to be there get black. Frame, axle tubes, leaf springs, etc.
 
I wonder if i can lift the motor from this hoop or if I'll need to try to hook to both sides to do the motor mounts

Also debating if i want to do the crossmember with the motor up and the mounts unhooked or if its better to have that all secure first then mess with the crossmember

Only concern i have is it lifting one side higher and making things off center. I may give it a shot and see how it works
