I dig the two tone black on bottom light on top but to be honest with you, use whatever contrasts your stickers more If you want them to stand out.

A light on top, dark on bottom

Alrighty.... I really didn't like the solid brown, so I went ahead and painted the lid a creamy Kaki color. I wasn't sure about the two-color arrangement originally, and I still have the option of painting it 100% Kaki.... but I gotta say, it doesn't look half bad!

Default Re: What kind of paint to use on an Otterbox style humi?

Here's another view. I might just keep it like it it is, the brown really isn't offensive on the bottom the way it is now. now it just needs an assload of clearcoat on top, and HOPEFULLY it will survive a few knocks.....
