Thank you! Yeah I think it turned out ok. At first I didn't think it matched that closely but after getting used to seeing it painted I don't even notice that it's not original anymore. I've also had quite a few complements on the truck overall in person and no one has ever noticed it's not original, so I suppose it's close enough!
