Paint Scheme for BudBuilt-Need Your Opinions!

[mcaz5]

So my BudBuilt needed to be repainted and I can't decide what color I wanna do. I though about red, but many others have already done red and I wanted to be different. I need your opinion on what paint scheme to go with! I can't decide. So I've pretty much narrowed it down to 2 choices. Black and this custom paint job :wink2::naughty:
So I have these two pictures

Those of you that don't know, this is the Alabama state flag. I'm from bama so I thought I'd show some pride for my state. Also I've never seen anyone do this haha

If that skid sees action, I'd leave it black.

Just leave it black man. It'll look 10x better that way. Especially since your truck is all blacked out.

Paint the skid and your wheels orange.

Does yours have the laser etched BudBuilt logo?

If so, take the paint off of that section down to bare metal. Mask it off, and paint the rest of the skid gloss black. Then removed the masked section and go over it with clear. The result would be this....

Then I'll tint the windows purple and paint the bumpers lime green and call it a day.

Mine isn't laser etched. Do you prefer gloss black or flat black? I'm kinds leaning towards flat.

Go with your bad self and paint it hot pink.



That or you could have it stenciled on the bottom
" I have rolled over and I can't get up"
or
" You can't steal my CATS, Sucka"
or
Paint a big arrow to a frame member " Lift point here"
or
Oil change directions, so that those guys do it right.

Very good suggestions. I would go with one of these or just black.

1) It's a skidplate... it will get scratched up anyway
2) It's under the car. Painting anything under the car a flashy color is for highschool kids. If you're a highschool kid, go for it.

I love the hell out of every single one of these.
