Backdraft Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Can any of you guys help satisfy my curiosity and chop me up a photo of an MJ wearing the mango tango paint? Or point me to one that is painted in it. Stock Jeep is fine, but one with a 97+ nose job would be more accurate to what's in my head. Thanks!

fbtased2002 Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 :idea: copy and paste that into my "good ideas file!" :thumbsup:
Backdraft Posted December 29, 2011 Author Posted December 29, 2011 Thanks a ton Brett. That's exactly what I was thinking. I guess I really should sit down and try to learn Photoshop huh? And thank you Ryan for the source material!
SW86 Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 i was just thinking about asking this as well. ive never used photoshop ssoooo......... if i send/post up a pic of my MJ could someone throw some colors on it for me?
87Warrior Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Thanks a ton Brett. That's exactly what I was thinking. I guess I really should sit down and try to learn Photoshop huh? And thank you Ryan for the source material! Not a problem. Ryans high quality photography made it a quick project. If your mind can think in layers, photoshop (or the free Gimp) should be easy to get the hang of. i was just thinking about asking this as well. ive never used photoshop ssoooo......... if i send/post up a pic of my MJ could someone throw some colors on it for me? Post them up. be sure to use a clear pic with a clean truck. I know there are a few folks here that use photoshop. Dark and multi-color trucks are very difficult to get a good color change on.
kawaboy13 Posted December 29, 2011 Posted December 29, 2011 Not asking for color here. Just wanting new wheels and tires and a rollbar if possible. I'll post a guys truck on here that I want the wheels off of. Couldn't get a reply from him so I hope it's ok. Anyway I'm open to ideas of what people would think looks good. This is my truck. It's been raining in Texas so it isn't very clean: Here is the truck with the wheels I like. . Also, I'm thinking of 32x11.5x15's. Any suggestions of tires that look good but last a good while on a daily driven fifteen mile city truck? Thank you :bowdown:
Automan2164 Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 I think your truck looks great as-is. I love the type of camo and the retro wheels. Rob
kawaboy13 Posted December 30, 2011 Posted December 30, 2011 I have these. I think I'm going to do these flat black and put my all terrains on 8)
oldrusty Posted December 31, 2011 Posted December 31, 2011 Just a little info for anybody considering painting their truck with the mango tango paint. I wanted to paint my z71 that color when i redid it winter before last. the problem was at that time that paint was insanely expensive to have mixed. If I remember correctly i was quoted right around $900.00 for a gallon of ppg basecoat. That doesnt include ant reducer or the cost of clear coat or hardener. I went back to the color search and wound up going with amber fire pearl coat ( a jeep color by the way :D )... The color isnt quite as bright but I'm happy with it.
ComancheKid45 Posted January 4, 2012 Posted January 4, 2012 sorry if this is a hijack, but would anyone be intrested in making this truck... Up in this paint scheme, don't bother with the decals at all, just do it up red with that blue stripe around it. :brows: Thanks! :D
Rymanrph Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Hope Ryan doesn't mind.....Image Not Found Haha that's awesome! My brother just bought a Crush JK. It would have matched pretty well. I did plenty of photoshops on my truck before I settled on the color. I've got Photoshop at work if you have any other colors you're interested in. I can take a stab at it too. This isn't Mango Tango, but Go Mango. I'm not sure how different they are, but should give you an idea.
hick92 Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 could someone do one kawasaki green maybe and 33'' boggers bushwacker flares
H3RESQ Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 could someone do one kawasaki green maybe and 33'' boggers bushwacker flares Omg....I just had a flashback to the early 90's. That was very popular then. Lots of Sami's, chevys, and Yota's did that with boggers or thornbirds.
hick92 Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Omg....I just had a flashback to the early 90's. That was very popular then. Lots of Sami's, chevys, and Yota's did that with boggers or thornbirds. no thornbirds they suck in mud

Rymanrph Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Mike, here is my stab at Mango Tango and since you said in your build thread that Dark Gray is another consideration, I did one for it too. While I think Dark Gray would look good, Mango Tango just really pops.
Backdraft Posted January 6, 2012 Author Posted January 6, 2012 Great Photoshop skills Ryan. Thanks a lot. I will show these to him and let you know what he thinks.
Blue88Comanche Posted January 10, 2012 Posted January 10, 2012 What about this :clapping: Better not show that to my Dad, His MJ is due for new paint and he just might do something like that.. lol
