schmidty77 Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 Ok guys here is the story. I've got a guy who is interested in my stock 20" rims and tires. They are the painted ones. How much of a custom paint job do you think I can get out of him for this trade. Also any paint job ideas you guys have I would love to hear. I'm thinking a dark slate grey metallic flame job might look nice or maybe something tribal down the side of the truck. Or maybe I can some how incorporate victory red & black on arrival blue canvas so I can have the fastest truck by default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdss Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 I think a pearl blue ghost flames would look sweet, thats what I plan on doing with mine, except in Victory Red. I just like the way they change while you move around the truck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impalarasser Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 that would look awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigTsBadSS Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 This is what you have to do TWO TONE your truck paint the top half white and use the tribal flame to break it up that will look sick. That is my plan for next year but I am still thinking about it. If you ever seen the dub escalade model it is black and red the way the paint is set up on that is perfect.

schmidty77 Posted August 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 I thinkthis look is good. This color should match up with the badges really well. Just put arrival blue underneath those flames. I bet this pic has you red boys dreamin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimB Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 White would look very cool. or white and gray two tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m396 #00-011 Posted August 20, 2004 Report Share Posted August 20, 2004 I'd take a wild guess, depending on tread depth, around a $1000 job. Just remember, trading equipment for labor doesn't always work out how you would like. Depending on how good of friend he is, he could call a normal $500 job as having a full retail of $1000.

That does look good on that SSR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_a_n_payne Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 I love your dark dark dark grey idea but the flames and stuff I dont really like. If you can make it to where you can only see the flames every once in a while then that will be good. I think you should do the daaaaarrrrk grey and then do a little bit of flames in pearl.

2drTahoe Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Here's a couple of paint jobs I like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m396 #00-011 Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 I like that Hummer's two-tone. Foose had a similar job on a CTS on the HotRod Power Tour, that I loved! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2drTahoe Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 Yeah I've seen that CTS, it is cool. Both Boyd and Foose do nice two tones. Here's one that works for BigTsBadSS's suggestion, except the white. The tribal is a bit too much for me, but I thought I'd throw it out there.

BigTsBadSS Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 That escalade is hot but the tribal is a bit to big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cokedrvrbjw Posted August 21, 2004 Report Share Posted August 21, 2004 How much do you think that escalade paint job would run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
