I need some opinions guys. I have the charcoal (graphite, grey, whatever you want to call it) color, and I'm thinking about blacking out my truck. Within the next week or so, I'm tinting my windows and have a can of nightshades coming in. Do you think the grey will match well with the black? Eventually I will get black wheels and meaty tires, but money is a too little tight right now for something like that.

Here's my rig, complete with its snugtop. Thoughts?

 

Yeah man i think itll do great, im doing the same thing, im about to black out the taillights on my rig too

 

Go for it man! Black goes with any thing. You can't go wrong IMO.

 

You can never go wrong with blacking out your truck. I think the black will go good with your color truck.

 

do it, i'm in the (slow) process of doing something similar with mine. hope to paint the wheels this summer, as soon as I have some time and summer gets here in chicago

 

It'll look just fine.

 

ive got a black and chrome thing going with mine, and it looks good. when i bought the truck it already had some chrome things and thats why i stayed with it, other wise everything would be charcoal and black, look amazing IMO.

 

mmstar, you have a great looking truck! for your taillights, did you use nightshades or tint? Thats the darkness I'm going to try and achieve as soon as my nightshade ships in.

 

I would do your taillights, paint your headlight housings black, Get some nice black wheels when money calls for it, tint it, and do the badges black or completey debadge it.

 

thanks man. i "niteshade-ed" it or sprayed them. make sure you just LIGHTLY scuff the red plastic with wet-sand, then spray your niteshades on, took me if i remember 3 light coats and then once its all dry apply your coats of clear. DO NOT FORGET TO CLEAR. if you dont clear you get this sh*tty flat black crap and looks bad. i sprayed IIRC 3 coats of clear as well. and if you havent used clear coat before, dont freak out when the paint looks really milky. i almost freaked thinking i ruined my lights, but after a few hours all of that white milk will be gone, and if any, if at all is left it simply buffs out with a micro fiber cloth, but dont buff within that 24 hours of spraying...
