So I want to blend in this front end I got (I had to replace it after a front-end collision) but I don't want to have to paint the whole jeep. I came up with three kind of concept designs. Other variants I was considering was keeping the white in line with the kicker panel for the entire length of the kicker panel, even when it went over the fenders. Any feedback/adjustment ideas greatly appreciated.

I would say the 3rd one gets my vote but it's still a little ghetto.

Good paint stores have color-chips and a spectrometer to match paint... match the silver and paint the new front clip.

I agree with soldier, however a camo scheme is pretty sweet

2 tones look good when they are a consistent height all around...IMO

If I were you I'd either get paint matched to the silver on the rest of the jeep and color match the front end or rattle can the whole thing something like flat black or OD green or tan etc. It'll look pretty crappy with the white on silver thing.

Yeah these ideas were trying to make the best of a bad situation for a color scheme. Now that I'm thinking about it, I'm thinking maybe either a digital camo pattern with a winter camouflage color scheme similar to this guy (Yeah I know it's a little tuner, but it's good inspiration):


Anyone have some examples of rattlecan camo patterns or who could photoshop my jeep with a winter urban camo pattern? Here's a base image of my current body paint:

What about something like this? Kind of tie into the whole "cherokee" theme. Perhaps a little 90ish from the stand point of paint, but if you are determined not to paint the front silver, its a thought.
