I think the white looks good on a z71. . .
Pass on paint and buy some nice custom wheels and tires instead. :thumb: BTW, I like white on that truck. :rock:
I Like silver on that body style.
Does it need painted? Looks pretty good to me! +1 on the white and the new wheels!
To use Greg's term, it would take cubic dollars to paint it another color because of the jambs, etc. The paint looks good to me, and I am partial to white, so +1 on new shoes.
Maybe get a cowl hood too if you want. White, silver, or black. Cant have my color :rude:.
+1 Respraying the same color would be expensive but not killer, but a new color is a whole different project.Quote:

Just color match it. and get the dings pulled out if you have any
top half it blue, debadge lose the molding and stickers. z71 have it ghosted in pearl. just some ideas i would be cheaper than the other route, atlest from my painter it would be.
well i been thinking about removing the side mouldings but cant make up my mind. i plan on lifting it 6 inches and running 35" tires so at that point it will get new wheels.
i was quoted 3000.00 for painting it the same color, it has a couple very small dings and some rust on the bottom of the doors they will sand blast and repair.
the front grill and hood have quite a few stone chips, i have really been enjoying it as a sleeper though, i dont ever like to draw attention to myself with bumper stickers or anything so a cowl hood would make me feel silly driving around. not sure why... just like to blend in i guess.
here is a pic of it, anyone want to photoshop off the side molding?
