    I started off with a wrap on the roof. Matte black, then decided to dip the top half of the truck...Give honest opinions. lmk..[[​IMG]

    I think I like the set up of your truck. It has a good stance. I'm not sure about the top dip. But bro it's your ride, if you're liking it rock on!

    ON EDIT: I wonder how it would look if you extended the dip to the hood? Make the cut line between white paint and dip follow the same line that's on the side of the truck...

    I did think about doing the hood, but I cant convince myself to do it yet. Plus I have seen that before a top black and silver on the bottom. Not sure. But I do have another idea.

    I actually thought of two toning my truck one day. Not quite the DIP way but I think it looks pretty good man.

    I think it would look better white up top then black at bottom.......maybe?

    I agree, that's why I stayed away from the hood. And only looking to stitch the flares

    Did my emblems and was happy with how they turned out. Pretty sure I wouldn't do the top of the truck though but that's just me.

    I'd prefer black on bottom and white on top.

    Between the roof molding strips and the badges looks great, I don't like the rest of it though. Not my cup of tea.

    If you didn't have a picture I would say it would be a terrible idea. But looking at it I think it looks pretty damn good! Nice work!

    If he did the whole truck it would be black.
