White Bed Wood

Here’s a pic of my bed. I think it’s a killer look although I realize 50% will disagree.

Re: White Bed Wood

I like it!....for a number or reasons, not the least of which is that its different than what a lot of other guys are doing with the wood floor thing.
As for original?...who cares, glossy stained mahogany with gold oak inlay wasn't stock either, lol.

Looks great!! nice job.

All good

Re: White Bed Wood

I really like it. I am a big fan of the white/black color schemes. From the look of your avatar, nobody will be able to see it unless they are in a plane, LOL. At any rate, I can appreciate it's originality while staying very conservative. I prefer the white look over the high end gloss and "gold inlay"!

Re: White Bed Wood

When I seen a post on here that the bed wood was painted the same as the rest of the truck from factory I was relieved that I didn't have to sand and stain. I painted mine white like the rest of the truck. I think it looks great.

Re: White Bed Wood

Looks nice. White trucks with wood beds had white painted wood from the factory. Just not quite as meticulously as yours!

Thanks. I actually did a lot of sanding. I used 3 coats of premium guaranteed 10 year waterproofing stain. It’s hard to see in the pic but the wood grain still shows. My parts truck was green and it had a camper on it since new, when I removed the camper the wood was still green, that’s when I decided to go body color with my wood.

Re: White Bed Wood

I think it looks really nice. A great clean look and the black metal strips set it off nicely.
