    Definitely do something not traditional. I think that "Moonlight Blue Metallic" (Audi color) is sick. I bet it would look pretty cool on your taco.

    I am sure you can submit a pic and color to the Photoshop Thread and see if one of the guys could give you a preview before you paint.

    X4 for Starfire Pearl...gorgeous color. Another color I like is the Tundra's Spruce Mica since I like green and that shade of it is perfect IMO.

    True. My hood was really dull as well as the roof. I tried waxing and made matter worse. I then took it in to a detail shop. They said they can cut n buff and the shine will come back. Went ahead and did it. Well what do you know, shinny again. Although I think they could have done a better job it still came out pretty good. I now wax my truck more to prevent oxidation.

    Give it a two-tone scheme. Like silver & white or black and silver or grey & silver. Something better than boring one color like all cars are now.

    Leave it white unless your willing to pay to have everything pulled apart and painted(engine compartment, Door Sills, Between bed and cab etc.)otherwise it will look like crap.

    I pick white from the choices you gave me. I would be totally unique and paint it some color that isn't factory. It might be a little gay but there are some cool looking yellow trucks. You'll be the only one around for miles with that color. Also a deep dark blood red would be cool.
