going to paint
painter aka brain called today and said he'd be ready for the bronco by wednesday and now i'm questioning my paint color choices . i hate this feeling i want it to look different than most but not stand out like a sore thumb . my major problem is accent color on flairs and bumpers don't want white or black bumpers .

Re: going to paint
I am going gray bumpers , flares, and gray interior to be a little different.
After meeting Brain, I have no doubt that what ever color(s) you choose will turn out awesome.

The scariest part of getting paint done. Of course, no matter what color you pick it will be awesome...it's a Bronco!

Brown with beige or an off white. Thats what my 79 is. They actually go together really well. The brown that I have has a bit of gold metallic in it. When it was a fresh/new paint it was beautiful.

Hey 777 - At the Auto Body tech class you were thinking about an airbrushed aircraft metal panel and rivet look on your paint. Sounded awesome! Is that still on the table?

Re: going to paint
I totally understand - a Bronco too nice to leave the garage would take the fun out of it. Excited to see what color you selected.
