As is sits right now the front tires are donuts because it just came off a trailer and I havent put the regular ones back on yet.

Any suggestions for paint color/decals?? Sandhustlers logo and decals coming off in a couple days. Progress pics to come.
 
Orange = :bad:

I vote blue! :icon_thumby:

By the way, bad-ass truck man!

did u buy it recently from sandhustlers? i saw it was for sale
 
Nice truck! I agree with these guys, go with blue.
 
Sick truck man. Go blue and do the graphics in white, at least that's my opinion. If I could do my truck up I would go all black with bold white and blue graphics.
 
Yea man go with what you want. It's your money, your truck and your the one who's gonna get the most out of it for now. But on the flip-side being creative and original makes the thing personalized to you, as opposed to remaking something someone has already done.

I think either way it will frickin rock. It'd be hard to make a truck that sick look bad.
