Alright I am about to get my truck painted and ain't really sure what color I want to get. I have told all my friends I want a bright orange but got to thinkin and there are some other colors I like and I would suprise everyone by gettin another color. I was think about gunmetal gray.

The gray is very classic. The orange will make you look like a punk IMO.

how would the orange make me look like a punk?

Once I get it painted I will be redoing the whole interior and if I was to go with orange I would do black leather seats with orange suede.

Most people see a flashy color like that on a car thats not over 100k and think the guys just trying to get attention or show off. Punk shit IMO. If your gonna use it as a show car I can understand the orange and it'll only look better with the matching interior. But as a tyte daily driver you probably may want the more sedated color (I would) to avoid cops pulling you over for having a flashy car and shit. Nothing personal just my :2cents: Good luck deciding :goodjob:

Well my integra I did have was baby blue with purple pearl and cops didn't really ever mess with me. I am goin to do the interior no matter what color I paint the outside. Right now it is goin to be a daily driver so I ain't goin to go all out on everything but once I get somethin else I will make it into a show truck.

OHHH this is awsome if your gonna enter it in shows! Your prolly gonna get tickets if you try to drive it regularly but it would be awsome to see. I know 50cent had this done to his murcielago in cali. Its not actually getting chromed but is getting a chrome paint put on (if I remember the article correctly). I may be wrong but check it out.

I'm only speaking from other peoples experiences with custom paint jobs. Coulda had more to do with bad luck though.

They probably not worried about you being a drug dealer either. A guy once told me about how he had his entire prelude interior taken out at a traffic stop just so the guy could search for drugs:lmao:

Go with the grey. It's clean. Either that or a dark blue with metal flake in it...

orange would look ok, if you add some stripes to make it look like the whole cuda/challenger design. black always looks good too tho.

Orange with Flat Black stripe like Hyper50 said. Kinda like a cude/challanger would look hot. What Paul posted looks hot too (the second one with black/navy on top and beige on bottom.
