My chassis has been sprayed electrostatic after sandblasting and epoxy primer.
The color used is mouse grey.

Anything but the bedliner/raptor coating/bumpy crap that is being used so much these days. Looks fugly in my opinion. Future us/bus collectors will be hating those coatings. A nice factory type of grey looks best IMO. Good luck.
I drive it, I’m not interested in future collectors opinions

Been searching for awhile...have found several good examples of the OG overspray look. Can anyone point me toward a pic of an underside with the wheel wells painted the body color and all else is gray? Taped off. I am not going for the overspray look this time!
