RE: Changing Colors?!?
I think you should leave it as it is. I am all for making the truck "Yours" but making rediculous mods that you may regret later on; like painting it (which more than likely as it sounds; you may put a cheap Maaco job that'll peel in less than a year, because you're a kid who lives with mommy and daddy, and cant afford an $8000 paint job.) You can make it yours without putting a fugly new hood on it, and a cheap paint job. There's rims, nerf bars, grilles, sidebars for the box, mirrors, taillights, decals (done tastefully)..etc. My point is; you've gone out and bought this new hood without planning ahead that you'd have to paint it...Just paint it the color of your truck; without having to paint the hole truck, or leave the truck the way it is (without the fugly hood) and do minor mods to it...DUH!

Although I dont know you personally; I know of people like you. They buy a cheap car, so they can have their toys; then they gotta make drastic changes to the car to make it "theirs", then they end up trashing it at the end...Like YOU! Evidently you got more money than brains, because instead of spending your money on junk toys and a plain *** truck; you could've taken that money and put down on a better truck, and made minor mods to make it yours, but as I see your just a KID and we all know kids dont think LOGICALLY!!!

A total repaint is a very pricey thing to do... another color is even pricier. As for some of SpearEms's comments... it's your truck... do what the hell you want with it. I bought my R/T factory order 'new' 5 years ago with a plan to hot rod it. Brand new truck... why oh why would anyone do that? Because you can. Mistakes are made... and corrected. This is my first Mopar... coming from some rather quick '65-'69 Mustangs. Oh yeah... it's PX8 Black.

Those arent rims they're disk caps...And what's up with the fugly lookin grille and bumper? They make it look like a big ol' black fish. I mean yeah i like how you changed the grille, but you put a RICED grille and bumper on it..Its an AMERICAN TRUCK; MAKE IT LOOK LIKE AN AMERICAN TRUCK! IF YOU WANTED JAPANESE; YOU SHOULD'VE BOUGHT A TOYOTIE OR A NISSAN!
