Cool

Not something I would do, but it could make for a mean looking truck in a Darth Vader kind of way. I think it would look better than the Nastruck you saw because you don't have that graphics stripe.

MrBBQ,

I agree, it has gotten off topic a bit. The Black on black looks good. Definitely intimidating. I like it save the graphics.

I saw a plain black F150 with black wheels today, and it didn't look too bad, definitely gave it the NASCAR look. I think an all black Lightning, NO PINK, would look pretty mean.

Anyways thanks MRBBQMAN for the link and thanks Bulldog for taking the pics. While I had considered it I don't think I will go that route.

Hmm... I like the idea of black on black- I wanted to do my car like that, and it would have looked better than this joker, since my tires are much lower in profile. I've read all the posts, and the only thing I can add is that it takes a brave man to drive a truck, even the mean, bada$$ Lightning, that has a large comic pink bulldog on the door and PINK BRAKE CALIPERS. Call me insecure, but on my black/black CLK430, there is absolutely no pink to be found.

In defense of Bulldog (did i say that?), these are company vehicles, as is this one http://www.bulldogneon.com/pics/vehic/veh1.jpg , so thats his color scheme, and thats how he makes his money. like they say: theres no such thing as bad publicity

Black on Black looks cool, the pink must have blinded me for a second. Keeping the tires glossy enough to match the rims would be a pain.

My smoked tail lights made the truck look mean, until someone stole one.
