    I like the first example. I hope you go for it. Clever with the plasti-dip, too.

    Looks stellar on the hood, but continuing to the grill seems more questionable...

    Also is that the Flippac? guess that needs a paint job too if you're going to go for the roof...

    be careful with the power washer... once an edge lifts it's game over for the derp on the hood. I found out the hard way.

    to make it easier to peel off the tape run a razor blade along the edge lightly to get a clean line, go too deep and you'll tag the paint.

    Looks great! As does the rest of the truck. I know a guy with a first gen who did his hood. And he is also a fello flippac'r.

    Any pics of where you have taken your flippac?

    I am with you on not caring what I say...because I would never advise someone who bought a white truck on any aesthetic question. So this is my opinion...it stinks. The overwhelming whiteness of it could use some accent...but doing the whole hood puts it way out of balance...especially doing it black.
