After all the input recieved, Im probably gonna keep it black. I like the silver dodge has for these trucks(I had one and loved it, didnt really show scratches after 4-wheeling. soo glad! haha) and the blue but I doubt insurance will pay for full paint of everything. Although Imma cry after I get my first scratch from off-roading.

Dont screw with the perfect look of your truck with a pinstripe.

Go with a close to original color.

If not you will have to have your door jambs painted, under the hood painted, hell it never looks right when a car totally gets a new color.

I would go with Black, but use a Cadillac or Mercededs paint code.
The paint won't be much more, and you won't have to worry about painting jambs, and under the hood, and the bed and all...

If i could paint mine a different color it would be a midnight blue.
Also i agree with them, no pinstripe.

I'm partial to black. So I would keep it black. If you want silver why not do silver racing stripes? Solved my problem :P!

To re-paint a vehicle, especially a truck... people have no idea the amount of added work it is.
