Default Help with Paint Scheme.

I have a 2001 Silveado 1500. It is Dark Maroon. Its in the paint shop getting the roll pan, hood, door handles, upper and lower bumper covers and grill paint matched. My question is what should I do, if anything. Maybe some silver racing strips. Maybe the top of the scoop satin black???? Ideas???

Ive seen a 67 mustang about that color two toned with maroon on the bottom and black on top. the lines seemed to blend in, which created the "is it two tone" factor. it looked ****, so maybe that's an option for you

put your oem hood back on man and sell that ugly bastard. i have 2 friends here in town who have marron trucks, one is lowered 4/7 on 22" kmc slides, the other is stock on ss 20s. the ss 20" rim truck has painted grille, rollpan, upper lower valances, maroon is a clean color.

Well the paint is pretty much done, need to do some final touch things. I do all that when I get home next.
