Yes I did was my first attempt at woodgrain. Turned out pretty good although I learned a few things for next time.

I like that bright blue they used on Durangos. Heck yes I'd go for it. Another thing you can do is the cellophane trick, wad it up and pat it over metallic for a cool look to flames and stripes. I didn't want to paint mine so it could not chip off, lol, but one I did in '99 still looks good but for owner abuse he carried tools on it a lot.

I like the woodie! Another old painters trick for the wood grain look is to shoot progressively darker colors through burlap cloth. Very nice effect.
