Default AEV Double Cab BRUTE body - help me choose a color?

I'm just wrapping up my custom AEV Double Cab BRUTE body. It took me two 1/8 New Bright JK bodies to make this one Brute body. Alot of hours into it with still a little more sanding needed and need to etch the door lines back, but paint is soon!!

I'd like to ask all of you what color should I paint this body? I'm leaning towards white with black bed liner fenders and bed. I'm up for any color as long as it retains the scale look.

Please let me know your thoughts or suggestions, thanks!!

I like the Dune Tan color and Commando Green colors on a jeep.

Here's a color palette for a 2013 jeep to see a couple more options...

I like grey, I would do a metallic mineral grey to be exact. For a back up color maybe factory red or green.

Looks good in white.

I would like to do a 1:10 scale of dave's personal brute. Their shop is around the corner from mine.

Thanks for the compliments and sorry guys, I didnt take any pics of the build process. Kinda just got in the grove and went with it. I'll post some better pics when I get a chance. Im about to start the custom steel exo chassis for this Brute body. Should be a sick rig when its done!!

Saw a JK today in a dark grey color called Anvil. Thought it was a neat color.

Anvil Grey is probably my favorite of all the Jeep colors!!


Which route should I take this body? Rattle Trap lookalike Class 2 or AEV Brute Class 1? All input is welcomed.
