I think you better have it photoshopped first. I don't see it as looking very good.

SevenSeries · 03-12-2010, 11:06 PM

I agree with N2trux about that, I don't think it will look good, but really its all about what you think looks good. Have it photoshoped and see what you think. There are people who can do it for you pretty quickly too. GL man. xD Post it on here to let us see what its like!

Lol, Well if you already haven't found the section on this board, go to the "Photoshop" Section. You could ask to have it done for you I am sure.

Just to be honest, cause I know you are looking for peoples opinion and such, but I really like it topless. if you think that this is what you want you should do it

. but my 2 cents is "I like it topless"

But nice truck all around. pretty sweet!
