Yes, the Orion silver was sprayed over the entire truck and then the Apple Red was sprayed over the silver on the bottom portion. They are both House of Kolor shades.

Mines the same way, when I get done with my other one then it might go on the chopping block.

I like the red top better but it is the truck I bought for my dad so he can do what he wants with it.

Any light blue and white two tones out there? I think the paint code is 8M, not 100% on that though. Post them if you got them.
