Hey guys give me your thoughts..Here is the old colors

 

[YNOT]

i love two tone

 

[Effeckt]

Why are you changing it? I actually love it the way it is now. If you do end up changing it I would stick with the two tone you have currently. Suits that body style perfectly IMO.

 

[mdtahoe]

Look excellent. I would not change it

I was thinking silver on top and black on the bottom with a carbon fiber graphics to seperate the colors...Although I though of just adding the carbon fiber to seperate the current colors. I need to have the top reshot...Came in from offshore and my attic ladder had fallen down and put a light dent back by the third brake light....Sucked...But not as bad as when the wife dropped the weedeater on my vette...lol...

 

[Effeckt]

Ouch both sound like painful moments. The carbon fiber graphic as a separator sounds like a cool idea. I think it would match your existing scheme but would look even better with the silver on top.

Ouch... sorry to hear about about the Vette
I like the silver and black idea but I would have the black on top and silver on the bottom.

 

[96ProCompTahoe]

Silver and black FTW!

Been debating on having the top of mine sprayed black when the time comes. Camaro is way ahead of the Hoe though.

I thought about that too....But I figured the wheels would stick out more with black on the bottom vs silver which wont be enough contrast...

I agree completely. The wheels would be lost if the color scheme was reversed. I was going to agree with him at first but in that scenario you would need a darker wheel if you went that route.

Did a little digging and these were a few I liked for ideas.

Red/Black

Black/Silver

Silver-gray/White

Blue/White

I didn't know exactly what theme you were looking for so I just posted some of the best looking schemes IMO that I came across.

I tell you what I would trade my Hoe for a nice looking Square body like the red and black one. I just sold my 67 short and wide and my 72 2wd K5 blazer. I ran out of time to complete the 67...I had almost 35k in it and it still hadnt made it to the bodyshop...lol...I loveme a nice sqaure body truck fo shizzle

 

[Bad bow tie]

I actually think it looks sick as it now. I like that combo a lot. What kind of seats are those? They don't look stock.

 

[Effeckt]

I am a HUGE fan of the 67-72 K5 Blazers. I had a 1972 K5 up until about 6 years ago when I got married. I did NOT want to sell it but had no choice due to finances. I'm hoping to get another one within the next few years so I know the feeling.

How about some shade of orange on top and leave the black (my two favorite colors). I'd replace those mirrors with some smaller sport mirrors while I was at it. Just my .02.

 

[hyde]

Yuk-Nali I had a custom VW Bug dropped and it was orange with black leather interior. I took pontiac Fiero seats and have the speakers in the head rest changed out and then then recovered in black leather....No orange on my hoe...

 

[blueflamed03]

here was my '88, blue/white two tone, with the gray marble look breaking it up.

then did similar on my '70

 

[hyde]

I like the truck I am just a fan of factory taillights on my trucks. Well Flammer you have some taste...Glad to see it!....lol...
