You don't like deluxe trim on DC in general or on bumpers? Can u Photochop it?


I like deluxe trim only on two tone buses. Preferably with dark color schemes.

I think the direction Eric was going with the VW logo (body color trimmed in black) should carry through the rest of the truck.

I'll see if I can do a bit of photoshoppin tonight...

Richard, congrats!!!!!!


IMHO...As far as the trim and bumpers go... I still think the pressed bumpers blue and black combo would look the best. If the towel bar bumpers go on it with deluxe trim on the body, them I'm not sure about having the trim on the bumpers too. I believe that when a vehicle has paint and body at the level this DC has, it dosen't need alot of help with body Bling.

Eliot, I think your DC would need chrome bumpers/window frames, hardware, etc., if you go this route.

you just don't see many SC/DC fully dressed for the prom... they were just work trucks. :geek:
