Factory Tu-Tone Blue Trucks

I am going to have one of my friends who owns a body shop paint my truck Blue and White, since Blue is my favorite color and the interior of my truck is already Blue.
I'd prefer dark Blue and White, I did some hunting online, but didn't find much.
I'd prefer some good quality high resolution pictures, so I can show my friend what I am trying to achieve.
Here is a picture of my truck so you can get an idea.

Thanks in advance!

You mean something like this?:



Higher resolution will just make it look worse. Best thing is it matches one of my boats:

Perhaps these will help with regards to what the factory two-tone patterns were?

I think I want the Deluxe Tu-Tone, just undecided if I want Blue as the main color or White as the main color.

That depends on how much you want to spend.

Blue in the middle like mine would be one of the cheapest ways to go(prob 1000) if you plan on painting the WHOLE truck to change the color, pan on at least 3000

Not strictly white and blue, but light blue and dark blue.

Here is an old picture of my truck. I looked it up and I think it's called "Cayman Blue." Sometimes it looks more green than blue.





Here is a picture of the roll pan after it was painted. You can't really tell much about the color in this picture though. I can take another one tomorrow in the sunlight if you want.
