Bored Man with day off.
I was bored today and had my bumper off to re-weld a few things so I decided to paint it.
I went to Home Depot with every intention of buying RED, but this is what caught my eye.
Hope you like.
I think the next step is flat black the whole truck, and paint the rear bumper as well as sliders to match the front.
Re: Bored Man with day off.
I was wondering what that orange paint was on the ground when I got home. Looks sweet....
Re: Bored Man with day off.
Looks good. the color fits with the white body
Re: Bored Man with day off.
looks great. I think it would look really cool as an accent on a black rig as well.
Re: Bored Man with day off.
Holy "safety" orange, CR, other drivers will be able to see you coming from a mile away! Got any paint left I can use on the 40?
Re: Bored Man with day off.
That is unique, i like it
Re: Bored Man with day off.
I like it too!
Re: Bored Man with day off.
Nice!
I also think it would look sweet with the flat black :fing:
Also did one in blue...
...and one in green,
Any other colors you'd like to see?
Re: Bored Man with day off.
after looking at subacools version of it in black. I have to say it will look mighty nice
Re: Bored Man with day off.
I agree. I think I'll go black body and the accents will be ever changing.
Maybe red next month.
Re: Bored Man with day off.
Not my style......but you are rockin it real nice like. We should get together and have a "paint our truck day". This is what I want to do to mine....

Re: Bored Man with day off.
Realtree camo.... that is the needed paint job now!
Re: Bored Man with day off.
Don't ask me about color! I am all about black...My last three rigs started out with a nice color, then they all became black primer coated.I basically got tired of spending the time and money trying to keep a nice looking paint job on a rig I wheeled. It took a while to figure out how much time I was wasting on the paint jobs keeping them nice... The one I have now I painted black to save myself some grief and time as soon as I really started to wheel it hard....
Re: Bored Man with day off.
I would do black, but I would do semi-gloss and not the flat black. Just my opinion but I think it would look better. Flat black just makes things look old to me.
Re: Bored Man with day off.
Me, I am to the point with 4x4s, after having owned a mess of them, that I am past the point where I am concerned about what the body looks like. I am usually just happy when I have no rust on my exo cage and spend the money on mechanicals and upgrades. With one or two exceptions, all of the rigs that I have ever wheeled with have ended up with more primer than good paint on them anyway...Of course all of the rigs that I have ever owned have all been paid for so keeping them nice because I am making payments on them hasn't come into play, either...
Re: Bored Man with day off.
True enough - but I figure if you're going to paint it anyway, the semi-gloss doesn't cost any more
I need to get some flat black on an area of my hood though, but I'm not sure the best way for stripping it and such.
But I kinda like having a sort of paint scheme going on my rig which you can probably tell lol.

Re: Bored Man with day off.
I usually use Rustoleum. Once I get the lights on my roof wired up, the glare from them on the raised part of the hood is apparently pretty bad, so going to do just the raised part in flat black. And it'll look cool too.
Re: Bored Man with day off.
I really like it! I love high viz colors though, probably cause of motorcycling.
Re: Bored Man with day off.
black will look good with orange bumper, black is the way to go i guess
