Powder on my truck- help me choose a color

[j.mo]

Alright. I'm going to powder my leafs, hitch, control arms etc.
but I'm having trouble picking a color for my truck, nothing seems to go with it good. I'm thinking candy/lollipop red but I think that'll be too much of that color combined with the truck color.

I'm building an oven as we speak, so I may even do the rear axle too.

Here's some pictures of the truck for reference.

The grille is also color matched now, that's an older picture.

Anything but black will look turrrrrrble

Looks good as is man. I wouldn't do anything to it. But if you do, go with black.

Black

Yeah, that burgundy color is hard to choose a complimenting color for. Especially if you're keeping the black wheels, I'd say stay black. Me personally though, I think colormatch the metal part of the front/rear bumpers, chrome wheels, then I think a silver powder would pop on there. That's really the only color I can think of that'd look good with your color

And add rear wheel well liners

Silver family colors will pop. Or metallic blacks. Will be better with that 06 clip, shiny tails, and those american forces you know you want. LOL

I have to say silver too

Was going to say silver as well then read everyone else's comments. Lol. Def think it would be your best bet.

I think burgundy and chrome would look good

 

[j.mo]

Well what got me thinking was, I had my torsion bars and rear diff cover/lift blocks color matched. (Paint) can't get really get powder in my color. Closest is a darker cherry red I suppose.

And it looks pretty tits. Has held up well. But if Im doing leafs and control arms and hitch, I want something a little tougher. Namsayin.
That's what got us here. With the lollipop red candy.

I think the color combo that Bill did with the candy red and silver looked good but his was on a black truck

 

[j.mo]

Y'all are gonna hate me when I say I think that silver looks like anoos on bills truck.

Inb4 thread derail :yarly:

I'm not a big fan of the axle and such done in silver. But suspension parts look fine. I'm betting money if you order prismatic swatches, you'll find a basic match for your color. Metallic silver/black/CM would be win in my book.

Listen to the rest of these guys, but imo that dark color needs some chrome or silver under it, then find a prismatic color that matches your paint if you want to do the axles.

 

[Jared]

silver imo

 

[slicksierra]

match the paint with some things? :shrug:

Another vote for silver.
