Camper Shell Color

Picked up this Snug Top Super Sport, with the Leer Locker overhead storage, for a steal at $1250. The only downfall is, it's White Platinum, and my truck is Oxford White. Should I just deal with it, or break the factory paint, and paint it to match the truck. Basically just use it in the fall for hunting season, or for a couple fishing trips. Most people don't notice, but I do!

I can't tell....but i have old eyes. If it bugs you, send it to Maaco and let them paint it for $200.

If it bugs you, tape off the top and scuff the sides. Squirt it with factory rattle can paint. I bet you can make it look nice. Not painting the very top will save you a ton of paint and work and you'll never see that.

Looks close enough in the pic and the price was right.

Looks close enough. Unless it really bothers you, I'd just keep it. I ran a F150 with a slightly of color cap for years. For the price I paid, I was able to get over it quickly. If I paid to get it painted to match, it would have negated any savings.
