    Im planning on adding an after market style bumpers similar to ARB, my truck is an 05 speedway blue sport, when i add these bumpers i want to have them color matched to my paint bc i don't know how good a flat black would look with the bright speedway blue, does anyone have pics of their truck done this way?

    yeah, i would more than likely just get it black powder coat, but i thought the color match may be an idea because i have never seen it.

    I was at my powdercoater yesterday picking up my sliders and they had a scuba tank they powdercoated and the color looked amazingly close to Speedway Blue. I know that's what I drive.
