Olive Drab / flat black Z71

[tyhuck]

I was looking at my truck the other day, and I was wondering what it would look like with a nice flat olive drab paint scheme with all of the black accessiries being flat black. DO you think it would look OK, or would it look too much like primer? I was als thinking of having the Z71 stenciled on the rear quarters like it was stamped in flat black as well. I want it to look custom, but not too elaborate so I dont feel so bad about scratching it in the woods.

 

I was also looking into a replacement rear bumper with a swing-away tire carrier like what people put on Jeeps.

 

WHat you opinion on what it would look like?

I don't think it would look bad. Its your truck, go for the look you want.

Personally I like the 'Murdered out' look as they call it around here, (typically done with flat black though) but would never have the balls or money to attempt it on my truck. There is a Mercedes driving around my town that the dude painted flat black, and added black wheels. It looks really cool.

I personally think that it would be pretty cool looking. I don't have the cajones to try it myself, but I think it would be pretty sweet.

Here's a guy that did it with a GMT-900: http://www.cardomain...o-1500-crew-cab

This might give you an idea of what an Olive Drab silverado might look.

Ive searched pretty much every image of an olive drab Silverado that Google images has to offer. They all have green wheels, bumpers, and trim. I was wondering what everyone thought one with black accents might look like.

 

Can anyone play with the picture in my avatar and change the truck to a shade of green that looks kinda like olive drab? I really dont know much about computers, and I dont have, nor know how to use, any photo editing software. The picture below is the best that I can do, but you can kind of see where I was wanting to go with it.

I think that if you do it right, it'll look great. It's your truck, paint it like you want.

I think it would loog good....It would definately be one of a kind which isn't a bad thing. I like dark colored vehicles though.

I think it would look awesome with the correct milspec paint. I've seen a few nbs government Tahoes painted OD green and a couple tan ones too. The military nonreflective paint is also pretty tough. I've seen it being sold online, but can't remember where.

i think it would look pretty good... as long as you have no chrome
