I’m in the process of picking paints for my suburban. Going with blue and white two tone paint. Does anyone have a two tone truck that still has the factory pin stripe tape that separates the two colors? I’m looking for a close up picture of it to see the color pattern. I’m assuming that that stripe is no longer available and even if it is, I’m thinking I want it painted on instead of vinyl tape anyway.

This is a picture of the paint design I’m going for and want a close up of the strip that would divide the white and blue.

Thanks!

That Burb there actually has the paint divider shaped wrong on the front fender. It's absurd how many people spend a ton of money on paint and get the stripe wrong.

Wrong colors, but this is a factory applied stripe. The black paint is original here, but the gray was touched up in most areas.

Yeah, I’ve got two parts trucks with the factory two tone design so I’ve got good examples to show my paint guy. I knew that burban wasn’t factory correct but just wanted to show the colors I’m after.

Personally, that light blue stripe that's about mid-pack in that picture is what I would choose for a blue and white truck.

My blue/blue truck has the blue stripe. That’s probably what I would choose as well

I’ll try to remember to look next time I’m with the truck. It’s in my buddy’s shop for now till I can get an alignment

Does anyone have these on a solid color truck?
Was considering adding one to my K5 after paint. Will be gray body with black top.

Never seen one, but it's always looked good in my head. Just pick a nice accenting color.
