Still debating doing this paint stripe without side trim just use the body lines to set it up and yes, the plan is to go all the way down behind the rear wheel opening. Saw one in orange and black that was done like this. What do you guys think of this layout?

A quicky paint edit.

Eh. Imho, if there's no trim to divide it, there at least needs to be some kind of accent stripe to divide it. And the rear lower bedside section? That's a hard no for me. It just doesn't work in my mind.

Just my opinion though.

Accent stripe. The paint going down all the way in the back is personal taste. Maybe some horizontal lines at the front of the wheel well so that it "fades" in.
Like on the Indy Hauler just horizontal.
