What color for the FJ 4door

My kids & I are having fun playing around with what color to paint the 4 door.  Here is what my eight year old came up with... I think it's GREAT!
I am liking orange for now maybe green.

Say goodbye to the truck...

It was a good day to sell the truck yesterday.
We cleared about $7,000.
It's a great start & is one more step closer to getting that 4 door FJ.
