Any one have any of the new colors? I'm leaning towards the new white called nuclear winter

Nuclear winter or grey matter would be my choices. It’s good to hear that they have these new colors. I’ve been thinking about doing mine again. Last time I mixed a custom white because I didn’t want pure virgin white so trying to match for touch ups is impossible.

Man. Lots of new colors. I'm leaning towards a similar pattern as @SmokingRocks has above but with Light quartz gray for the main, and my custom match to my powder coat for the "trim." The real question is whether to go the extra mile and coat my ARB or not?

Can I easily buy the tint from an online dealer? Any links?

I have the complete set of color chips including the new colors, some of them are great.. im stuck between 3 colors for my truck, and 2 of those are new colors. Ill post a picture of all the chips when i can.

I hope this works, posting from phone.

It's crazy how different the colors look in different lighting. @maxamillion2345 with get hammered looks awesome! Then I see some with the same color and it's a nasty looking green?

"All nighter" is another weird one. Same color in all 3 pics

Id say my pictures are pretty close to what it actually looks like. Its not green.

Good to hear, it looks awesome. Those other pics were posted by magnetman on another forum oddly enough.

 

[maxamillion2345]

Of the first two pics you posted, side by side, Id say get hammered looks very similar to the picture on the right.

If I remember Ill take a picture of the oem slate gray door jambs vs get hammered

The contrast doesn't even look that bad to be honest. I was kind of worrying about that if I do mine in midnight special vs nightshadow pearl

Anyone ever attempt to install window vents after monstaliner? I like mine and use them a lot in GA summer keeping the heat from building up inside. I'd like to know if I do this should I leave room to reinstall or maybe just go over them and not remove them?

Not sure I know what window vents you are talking about. 80 series?

 

[JaketheSSnake]

Probably the auto vent shades that stick to the body just above the glass so you can roll the windows down a little without getting rain in. I assume they might have an issue sticking to the rough texture instead of a smoother paint

 

[6894kevin]

Exactly they stick on the outside above the windows.

Now that I think about it, most people don't touch that area. It's like a matte black, isn't it?

 

[6894kevin]

It is, but I was thinking about lining everything. I may just paint that area and not line it because I really want to keep them.
