Here's a couple pics with the trim done in semi-gloss black Rustoleum. I think it contrasts nicely with the gloss Rustoleum Sand.

The driver front window is a very cool feature.

Got the front done. This took a combination of masking off stuff, removing other stuff, and a little hand painting with a brush in some of the tight spots.

(The sticker on the driver's side bumper is a 1985 Oversand Vehicle Permit for the Cape Cod National Seashore from our honeymoon. Yeah, I'm a romantic. Anything to get the Mrs in the truck, right?)

OK romantic..try one of those little vases for flowers like the new VW's have...campy but effective.
