It's hard to say quite yet. The tailgate hasn't had the clear put on yet, that's happening either late tonight or tomorrow. But it looks pretty dang close. Definitely better than a "close enough" color off the rack.
I'm at least trying to do the wrong thing the right way! Lol
That's a pretty good match,looks like Duplicolor got it right.

Couldn't live with the roll pan being all silver with the blue paint on the sides like that.
Ran tape from blue to blue and stepped back.
It was crooked as a politician!!! WTF!!!!
Grabbed a tape measure and there is a a 1/2" different from the taillights to the blue!!! FML!!
So I picked the side that didn't go down into the plate bucket area.
Will get addressed during the real job.

So that's what I'm currently up to, waiting for the first layer to tack up.

Thoughts?
Comments?
Ya?
Nay?

Obviously (hopefully) that's just tape painted and stuck on for a visual reference.

Maybe someone with the center cap?....if I decide to do it.

I kinda like the tying in of the body color to the wheel.
Since the truck was originally going to be painted black, that's why I bought black wheels, and now since boss woman says that ain't happening, figured this may be a good option to go with. And if I don't like them, I can paint them black again. They are removable for those who don't know.
