well since its time for the long awaited and long coming paint job, im stuck between the two choices, should i do HOK Lapis blue and Orion silver two tone, oooorrrrr burnt orange, sunfire mist, w.e you wanna call it. and black flames???? also what to do with the hood,, im stuck between 3 options with that, take the scoops i have on and do a cutout so they are functional and mold them in, cut the hood and raise to make a cowl, or do a ram air like on this silverado???? the interior will be done to match either paint sceme since my interior needs redone anyways, im just stuck and need help, i really like the blue and silver but too many ppl are doing it now a days, and same with the cowls, alot of ppl with hardbodys have them and i love being different, please let me know yalls thoughts!!!!!

eh, it's your truck, figure out what you like the most... everyone's different. i'm not a fan of cowl hoods or hood scoops... and i've heard HOK doesn't have UV protection. Then again I'm stuck on black and green for colors, and uh, I like thick women and seem to be totally drawn into bad situations and drama, so, go figure. LOL...

ditto!!! BUT since you are askin for our opinion i say chevy hood and do a 2 face paint job...split down the middle with one scheme on one side and one scheme on the other side. i just love that...don't kno why tho

true, build it how u want it, thats what makes it your truck, re-word it to which one do you like better, then if the choices are close to your initial plan roll with it, i like the orange/black flames but revers it, no cowl hood, looks too ricer
