are you gonna paint the door jambs, under the hood, in between the bed and cab also?

Probably not, im not all that picky and this isnt going to be a show truck. I might do under the hood, but not sure. I will probably take it off and at least do the top of the fenders though. Not sure on in between the bed and the cab though, Im gonna look later and see how much is visible when just standing there and decide

Code if you want a gloss black I don't know if this is really the route you want to go
Single stage gloss will look pretty good but it won't have the depth and shine that you would expect (compared to a base clear paint job)

Black trucks are the best to start paint jobs with IMO
Find a body line under the hood to tape off along, leave your engine bay gloss black
Pop your door panels off and tape of your interior


You'll be much happier in the long run

Do you think if I put a gloss clear coat over some parts it would make it look like normal paint? I was thinking about doing that to the cross hairs in my grille just to make them stand out a little

Totally agree. You'll kick yourself every time you open your doors if ya don't.
