GETTIN MY TRUCK PAINTED SOON 2 COLOR CHOICES IN MIND

I been telling everybody that i will be gettin my truck painted soon, but i have 2 color choices in mind.
1 Paint it the same color which is mystic purple mica

2 Paint it matte black like this taco below

 

flat black! That looks awesome!

 

Flat black

 

YEAH I SAW IT ON EBAY TOO, DON'T KNOW IF IT SOLD OR NOT

 

o yeah, flat black

 

IDIDNT KNOW EITHER.

Flat black. Awesome

 

The original colour will be A LOT easier and cheaper. No need to do the door jams, engine compartment...etc. I'm sure you don't have re-sale value in mind, but it will raise it a bit as apposed to flat black.

Flat black looks good but in my experience it will get old quick and starts to fade unless it's protected. IMO it sort of gives a "cheap" look to the truck.

 

isnt that one of those grave vault lowering winch things behind the truck?

 

^ This

 

I agree...

 

paint it that fj green color

 

Black..or

This

coolest tacoma color ever

 

I concur

 

Agreed!

 

black

 

out of your 2 choices deff flat black
but if i was to ever paint my truck it would be the fj tan color with black roof and accents

 

on wheels and certain parts fine but flat black on cars/trucks looks cheap IMO...i've even seen late model benzes, range rovers, bmw's in flat black in my city and it looks horrible. it was in within the last couple years here but you will get tired of it...

 

It's a pain in the @ss to paint that space between the cab and the bed (you have to remove the bed to do it) but unless you do - the color of original paint showing through there will look crummy.

Basically, unless you're doing an off-frame engine-out restoration going with the original color is the best repaint choice, as mentioned above.

 

I saw a landcruiser painted matte green and it looked really cool.

 

ya i'm sure but it has to be a really good paint job and if it's not the flaws on the flat color is very noticeable
