My wife and I ppurchased my first EB last month and I am really excited. It is in good shape, but we are still trying to improve it. I agreed with my wife to paint it red, but I have been rethinking it. Maybe an army olive drab green, with black wheels etc. Anybody have any pics of something similiar. Show me what you have!!!!!!!!

One of the MEB guys that I am friends with named Randy has his painted a flat olive army green. i think it looks awesome! if you want a flashy rig for the street go red. Trail rig the green is nice. I don't have any pictures sorry.

How about a desert tan color. That will give you the "military" style without looking like some crazy survivalist.

Just my 2 cents.

I was planning on painting my EB OD. OD with black bumpers, flares and rocker guards. Wheels will be chrome for now since I already have them. Won't be done till the end of the summer though so no pictures, sorry.

mine is a close "OD Green" color...one with my old black rims and one with the aluminum rims. the PO had it painted the current color. i dont mind it, but someday down the road i am going to go with a dark metallic blue or a dark gunmetal grey. ;D

Meathead33,
I like the color on your rig. Do you know exactly what it is? I will be painting my rig some color of green this spring I just haven't found the right one.

RaleighBronco- Who owns that green one, got any more pics of it? Is the top charcoal? I would like to see a few more pics of it if you have them. Also, I thought you were going to put up some pics of the rapper install. I would like to see the finished product...the original thread kind of went astray.

He made it all himself (except the tube...Complete Offroad bent that). I tried to get it from him actually before he sold it, but it was a package deal. He got lots of compliments on it, but he said himself, he would never build another. He's not a welder by trade, but you wouldn't know looking at it. Nice work.

Trailpsycho- That olive drab is owned by someone in the M.E.B. (MidAtlantic Early Broncos) and one of my buddies up in Richmond took the photo. I'll bet if you looked up Brian Keeler on the MEB or over at the ECBR, he could tell you the owner's name. I am going to finish up the passenger side rapper on Sunday afternoon. I will post up new pics shortly thereafter.
