Thought I'd post a quick poll on how many would like to see PI offer full-body paint as an option.

JimB,
When you're buying the best, no need to skimp on the quality of the paint!

Wow, I could really go for this. I hate the oxidized look. Anyone guessing how much it would add to the sticker? Would be rich looking though to have a charcoal gray color with glossy black trim or vice-versa

Some of the fellows have had their HDT's painted and the highest I've heard about was $6000 and the lowest was around $3000. I suspect you get what you pay for.

I guess it would be OK as an option, but one thing we really like about the Excel "look" is it doesn't "show the money" when you are boondocked.


Maybe I have ruined that effect with my new F550??

We bought the matching stripes for our tow vehicle from PI, but have not installed them yet.

I also like quiet elegance. BIG red trucks are quiet and elegant aren't they?

I'm with you on camping in stealth mode.

My security plan: Park a few spaces away from a $500k class A.
