See pic of our truck above (yeah, not the best pic). It was painted rubellite red, or as close as we could get to it many years ago. I like the contrast between the body color bows and the black headliner - if the paint was a darker color, maybe not so much.

Paint should be a pretty good preservative - bows aren't exposed to much weathering or wear.
