Painting the SS!


Recommended Posts

Finally decided on the color I wanted to paint my SS. The clear on the roof and hood has gone to shit plus the truck has rock chips and dings everywhere from the previous owner. Going with a bright white color on her, front bumper scoops will be black as well as all the emblems and mirror caps. I think she will look great!

 

She looks good in the picture below but that is all in the camera angle :)

Yes they are going to stay black along with the SS emblems and other accents. I would love to paint them silver like the originals but would prefer the black and white theme. Eventually I would like to change the interior leather to black to go with the theme.

 

And the SS goes to the paint shop first week of august so as soon as she is done I will definitely post pictures :thumbsup:

Yep just something about a white truck, same color my clone is going to be but ima just go whit the factory summit white....I on the other hand dont like the idea of black ducts/wheels/emblems just makes it look cheap IMO. Black interior is sexy tho and same route im going whit mine.

This. It would look MUCH MUCH better if you painted the truck white, and did gunmetal accents. That way it's not as contrasted as black.. But looks so damn good

 

Edit. Think of it like this. Gunmetal is to white, as chrome is to black. You don't put white accents on black.. Too much contrast. Gotta get the floOoOoww lol

I understand what you are saying there bro. But the black will match my rims, and to me that looks better then 3 different colors on the truck.

I agree that gunmetal is a sick color but like I said above it simply does not go with the way I want my truck to look.
