Man... if the picture color is accurate, it really POPs. What color orange is that? The rest of the truck going to get that?

It's basic Hugger Orange.

If the sun's out, I'll get a couple pics of it outside, looks a lot different in daylight.

Correct, the rest of the truck gets the same paint.

Orange Peel, Orange POP...

Re: Project: Agent Orange

Are you going to stiffen or box the frame any to keep it from flexing when offroad?
