2 tone paint jobs, gotta be more than 4

just got done looking through the "post your 4x4 here" thread and was looking for 2 tone paint jobs but could only find about 4 I know I said my truck was going to paint a while back but my painter is backed up and hes doing me a special favor so I'm put on hold... anyway I was looking for different ways people have split their lines up on their rig. Anybody got any 2 tone pics I could see....

Mike...

I do like the sliding windows too. I've seen a set for sale on e-bay in the past. Opening bid was $225 and they didn't get any bids.

The demand for these things seem to be really huge. I wonder how easily they could be fabbed? Mine are made from aluminum and they were on the truck when I bought it over 10 years ago. Ya I can post some more pictures of them if you want, I just have to wait till the sun comes up again. Ok I guess I'll duplicate the paint job on my other Jimmy, the only difference is my red one's hard top is completly smooth likr the sheetmetal, and my other jimmy has the bumpy hardtop so.... I hope the metalic paint sets good on the textured hardtop..... anyways why is my hardtop smooth aren't they all textured? the outside of my hardtop appears to be sheetmetal but the interior is fiberglass.... was this an aftermarket top?

There are a number of Blazers that have the tops smoothed when the owner wants to paint it body color.They were are rough from the factory.
