Default Painting chevy bowtie

I have been looking for cheap upgrades for my 95 blazer and this seemed fun so i did it. I am a guy, by the way, and i know the pink is a bit girly but only paint i had around and it still looks pretty cool imo. Tell me what u think.

Yeah thats a cool treatment but I got mixed feelings . The only it makes sense is to have the accent replicated some where else . IDK the center caps for the wheels, or rear view mirrors or hatch pillars. Just throwing ideas. By itself, meh. Keep going!

That was a cool look in 1988 (not being a smartass, being serious. I'm that old lol)

I'm that old too, but I think it looks cool. Not a big fan of pink, but I could see that technique on some of the black trim as well.

By itself, it just looks like you ran over a pink paint can. If you could carry the theme out in other places, maybe like LeWhite said, it would be a cool little accent.

I guess it comes down to whether or not it looks intentional, or accidental.

It's your truck, though, so who cares if we like it? If you like it, that's all that matters!
