well not mine, but im getting this for my son, I dont like how its just blue, I wanna paint it and put a nice two tone on it, to make it sorta street looking....any help would be great. Im not the best artist but can mask and paint pretty well so a decent color scheme wouldnt be to hard for me to do, just no graphics.
thats the only angle and pic of the bed that I have seen, I really want to get the "widebody" double bed for the boy, but the single bed is only one that i can get for now.
I worked on my own last night.....damn MS PAINT!!! looks more like a toon, but gives me an idea.
here's some red and grey...i can't believe you did all that in paint
if you want diff colors or diff painted parts or whatever, let me know.

yeah I can do some stuff in MS paint, but I never learned photoshop, want to start though. Would you be able to the car in 2 tone, red base with black top area? I like the lip kit painted in black............on the real car bed's lip im doing some carbon fiber wrap graphics on it.
You could take the red idea above, except paint the front area where the intercooler/radiator goes black, then make a stencil and do some silver mesh.
I'm no good at doing photo editing myself, but I personally think that having it two tone with this bed will make it look more like a car with an unpainted body kit. It would just look weird. You would have to paint it black above or below where that line is just above the dip in the side panel I would think if you wanted to do that though. I know my opinion doesn't count, but those are my thoughts. Also - don't know about the back but you can always do something with the taillights too.

^^^^ thats why I wanted to see what it may look like, I like your idea about doing the rear tail lights, havent seen the bed yet, so i dont know how I can work that. I will go look at the bed more before I pick it up.
something more like this?? i can go a little further down with the black.
