Figured this would be the best place to post this I'm painting my dodge this weekend it's gonna be matte black and I'm not sure about wheels, toolbox, and bed rails should I paint them or not? And what color should I paint my grill? Tell me what all y'all think and let me know any input is much appreciated... Does anybody have photoshop?

if you are going matte black, the best inspiration i can think of are the late model special edition harleys... like the fatboy low. id brouse some HD pics and see what you can come up with for contrast colors.

after looking at some pics... id say go with matte silver as a contrast. i dont know if you could go with the HD orange since Ford kinda cornered the HD edition trucks...

Sorry man best I can do the rest I have are worse than that and I'm hoping I can get away with not running sport headlights because wiring and all is different

there was a guy on my XJ forum that did his old jeep in matte red with his rockers and grill and other accents in flat black with a flat black punisher skull on the hood. it was pretty much the sweetest painjob id ever seen from a garage before. you could do somethign along those lines

I say matte black the toolbox, and the rails or maybe herculine them for durability. A matte black and matte red theme would be cool. the silver would look good too.
