Default Paint Job Ideas for a 98 Club Cab?

The past few days, I've been thinkin about what kind of paint job I should put on my truck. No matter what, it's gotta have a new paint job, but I'm havin a hard time deciding. The body styling on the front end, especially, is tough for me to design around. Anybody have any ideas? I'm pretty much open to anything: two-tone, flames, tribal.. I just need somewhere to start from. The main color of the paint job is gonna be Viper Red, since its already been purchased and applied to the dash bezel, valve covers, and oil pan. And kind of secondary color, or anything is cool. If anyones got an idea please post. I've got an image of my truck at the moment attached.

Instead of a machine gun, a big (almost anti-tank type) rifle could be mounted in the back. Rifles are legal.

I have a picture of the valve covers and the oil pan handy, but I'll have to take a picture of the dash bezel tomorrow, since there aint light outside right now and my battery is out with the whole front-end taken apart. I'm startin to say no to the flames, but I'm not quite sure what would look best on the Dodge.

something I think might not look bad would be like the old corvette white spot on the side of the truck
