At some point in time from a GM factory, yes... LOL
Here's the truck in April 07 just home from the dealership:
I told myself I was going to leave it stock....apparently I wasn't listening
Of course it had to be painted close to company colors, so I figured I'd modify the front and rear bumpers and lightly smoke the clearance lenses. Then the stock tires had to go, got some Wet Okole seat covers, then tinted the windows, installed AMP Research steps, got the HD heads, found the Weld wheels cheap on ebay, lowered the rear and added load assist bags, bought a hood, got a cat-back exhaust, etc..

Well, I don't have a pickup truck, but this is a picture of what I have done to the bed of the truck since I bought it, minus the hitch.
Notched the bed to accept the Transfer Flow 98 gallon fuel tank, made the spare tire rack so it fits over the tank and installed the reverse lights up on the headache rack.

Yep, all white looks real clean (I still would have painted everything). But, my dad started our company in the 80s with a light blue Chevy so we've painted everything similar to that ever since.
The color on my 07 does photograph well for some reason (too much silver in the paint?)
Best pic that shows the color:
Don't mind the flowers.....decided to have some fun with a bumper I made for a buddy of mine since he has asian style tattoos with flowers
I'll send you a PM.

Yep.
As I was helping him swap his top pad and brackets and everything over to the new bumper he took off his coat and told me not to get any more custom paint ideas from his tattoos. I was going to paint a fish on the bumper too, and then paint the entire thing magenta, but I ran out of time, LOL
