    I'm looking to buy a shell for my quicksand 3rd gen access cab. It'll probably be used, so it will need to be repainted and I'm very tempted to use this opportunity to do something unique and paint it an olive or OD color to contrast the tan. I know I'd like it, but I dont want to be stuck with something that is constantly getting laughed at (been there...)
    Id like some honest opinions

    This is not my original photo, but I did some quick photoshop just for the hell of it...

    Cool idea, but I think you'd be better off going with just color matching. Maybe toy around with a matte olive drab? Either that or try a darker OD.

    Color match or maybe black instead. Not really a fan of OD green personally.
