Need some input guys!

So as most of you guys here know, i used to have a two tone crew cab. Well i sold her due to high miles and rust. I bought a all white ext cab to replace it. I have ALWAYS wanted an ALL white obs. Until i got one, its really boring . So i want a new look for her. It needs a bit of paint work as it is, so im thinkin of going two tone. Here it is when i first bought it.


20 mins after i bought it, removed the AWFUL running boards:


Added cab lights and a single black aussie stack:


So now im thinking white and maroon two tone...Mitre stacks, and chrome "nerf" style running boards.
I really want to make her into this:


What do you guys think?

That maroon and white is sweet!! I think it is called troubadour red. I also really like mitre cut stacks but properly sized bullhaulers look pretty good too. Two tone w chrome accessories will be awesome but I think two tone w black bars, black stacks, and black bumper would also be nice.

Kris The CC looks great too! I think you should go with the 2-tone... had to sell my 2-tone to help pay for school Looking back I should have just taken out another loan because I almost have everything paid off now 1yr out.

Oh well... as they say hindsight is 20-20

Definitely on the dual stacks instead of the cat stack... And two tone would look nice.

kris, if you paint htis truck and its finally the way you want it. and you joke about selling it again, i will drive out there and slap the snot out of you! haha. hell, even if you did a stripe just like richs paint to compliment the white, it would look sweet id think? couldnt think of a color at the moment thoe.
