Ive been getting the itch to two tone something on my truck. At first i thought about doing the lower portions like the Level IIs, but ehh.... kind of not feeling like doing that much to it. I like how it looks, but dont feel like painting that much of my truck

Sooo...

Im thinking i might do the powerdome portion of the hood. I like DSG and how it looks with the black on my truck, but well, yay or nay?

Plus... should i do the grill surround too? I tried to photoshop it but i kinda like how it looks with the grill all black still.

Thoughts? I might do it tomorrow at work. Ive got some time.

 

I think the first picture looks good. Have you thought about leaving the center portion of the hood black and painting the lower portion of the bumper black?

 

I really like the first pic but with the center portion of the dome left black.

 

do the hood and grille surround and paint the wheels dsg as well! it'd be ****!

 

like that? It does look better. Breaks up the grey a bit (pic was the day i brought it home lol. Only one i have a 'looking down' pic of the hood.

 

^^ I'd go with that. Looks great!

 

i wanna do the samething but reverse.. dsg truck, gloss black paint job

 

I might go ahead and do that. Oddly enough, i kinda like the chrome headlights more with the grey grille lol.... I still saved my stocker headlights just in case. woot for keeping mint 500 mile headlights in the garage!

 

need to do a dsg headlight mod

 

I like the 1st pic but I think it needs something more.... maybe lower portion of tailgate too??

 

i was thinking about the middle of the tailgate sometime down the line. Like... ummm.... the guy with the blue truck on here has lol.... ive always liked how that looked.

 

The Edge one?? I was thinkin' recreate the Beard deal... I'm sure someone has pics of Beard w/ his stock bed??

 

I like the second one better but I think the lvl2 scheme would be better. Nice either way...and loose the front plate...lol

 

Front plate has been gone for some time lol. i hate front plates and have previous fix it tickets to prove it.

EDIT - i meant like Sonic04Edge's truck... i like his tailgate

 

him and beard, didn't they swap beds back in the day? i agree tho that does look good.

 

this one. do it. now. and while your at it ditch the steps and get some more agressive tires..

 

steps are gone and some 31 BFG A/Ts are in the cards when i can justify it. Thats an old pic ha ha

 

Go for it. While your at it paint the lower portion of the truck just liked you thought about doing. Best color combo ever!!

 

Gonna clear it in a minute. I decided not to do the grille right now and see if i like it. I can always do the grille later.

masked and outlined



basecoat!



unmasked and waiting to clear

 

Painted! Had to colorsand and buff it too. Stupid chunks of dirt got in it.



I think i will do the grill afterall. It looks incomplete. Oh well, ill do it another day.

 

Looks awesome, just like the pre-pics. With the grille painted to match, it'll look badass!!!!!

 

That looks awesome man. Definitely do the tailgate like mine! Will really tie it in. Cant wait to see the grille done!

 

looks sweet but needs the grill done. i think the bottom side of your truck would look sick painted too

 

Yeah... that's what I meant when I said Beards truck... the bed/tailgate was originally on Beards truck (note his hood) but now bed/gate is on Mike's truck.... I like it!

 

Looks awesome Steve!!
