Okay, so the Explorer is cool in all black, but I think it's time for a new paint idea. Whatever I go with, it's going to be flat rattle can, but I've had quite a few years of experience in that art, so I can do a good job. A solid color would be easiest, though a multicolor paint scheme would be cool, too. I'm almost leaning toward basing it off of the classic "Big Oly" Bronco paint scheme. Not exactly like this, but close:

Or, something like this color ("Oregano" by American Accents):

(It's actually a little lighter and closer to sea foam once you apply it. I painted my bmx bike with it not too long ago).
Completely white would be easiest since my fenders will already be coated in white gel coat, but that's not very exciting. However, it does show mud more, and that's a good thing.
Any other ideas?
