Found a Rattle can paint that was almost an exact match and a little sandpaper to put the patina back

I like that idea alot. I wish my truck was a two tone and I'm not ready to do a full body restoration yet, that is a option I didnt know existed.

Just used semi gloss generic white paint

Thankyou all for the Craigslist adds and suggestions, I found one here local to me through sheer coincidence and luck and it is literally the exact roll bar I wanted. I will post some pictures up once I get it in my truck so you guys can see your hard internet searching labor had good results haha. Here is the bar I'm going to get this afternoon, has the super long kickers and comes with a set of four KC lights, not sure if they work or not and they are missing the smiley covers but they are there. This bar had been in the guys shop for 20+ years just sitting there, he was saving it for "the right project".

It lands behind the rear of the wheel wells, a few inches before the tail gate.
