Default Hard body paint suggestions

Looking at painting my CXT and am looking for some suggestions. I know that I need to use some automotive grade paint but am looking for a different look than just plan single color. Here is a base coat I laid down. Let me know what cool ideas I could do to make it stand out.

Maybe try googling some images. That might even bring you some pics of the same truck you have there. Looks like a cool build though...those bodies are hard to find.

ok lets start...

what colors do you like? once you have that then i can start brainstorming.... its hard for me because i can get any color i want.. metallic's, pearl's, flakes and even custom colors.. i can take a little bit of how ever many colors i want mix them together and see what it comes out like..

those are cool looking bodies for sure!!!!

I asked this question in my 8x8 tow rig thread and got a good response.

I was thinking black and or blue. I hit it with black first to show all the imperfections. Then fixed what I needed to. Now I'm getting ready to hit it with primer and go from there
