The flat black look just looks like you couldn't afford a decent paint job, IMO. I had a flat black 79 Elky before it was the cool thing to do and that was the reason why.

I like the red on your truck but I think Flat Black would really set it off and I love your DD I think it's pimp!

With your tinted windows, those wheels, and that chrome up front i think flat black would really look good!!! Remove the molding from the side of the pickup for sure....

If you decide to go red paint... after the molding is removed, paint from where the top of the molding was down in black...and paint the sides of your scoop black...

I dig the red. Lose the side molding and paint your front bumper and grille black or flat black and it would look killer
