Custom Paint

Does Keystone offer to paint your unit to match your TV.........or do they plan on it ?..........as you can see from my sig , my truck is electric blue.......would love to paint the mounty to match it.....I know SOB offers this at no extra charge.......you probably know what brand I'm talking about.......CC.

Probably easier to paint the TV to match. I am having disturbing visions of old world craftsmen with very small paint brushes doing detailed trim work using electric blue paint around the Montana decals!!!!!! But they did match the rig to my TV, or was it the other way around???? Ha Ha

Probably cheaper to paint the TV. Think of the difference in sq. ft.

Oh, I don't want to paint the whole unit just a small portion like the sob I mentioned.........front cap and bottom and a little bit to blend it together.

As far as I know, the answer is no. They just in the last few months started offering full paint on the Big Sky. And, there are still some decals on it, at least that is my understanding.

Now, all that said, they change stuff on these rigs all the time, from day to day, and surely month to month and the 2008 you buy at the first of the model run is not gonna be the same as the 2008 they put out at the end of the model year.

SOOOOO, full body paint could be around the corner, and we won't know it till we run into it full force!

Because you already own the unit, I'm not sure why you would want to take it back to the factory for paint? Most specialty body shops would paint it and do a much better job.

Took our to such as shop last fall to get some holes filled in the gel coat and they were doing custom paint on a big MH in there per customer spec.

We were told last year at the MOC Spring Rally in Buelleton that they do NOT have a custom paint process. It is simply too expensive. But that would not stop you from taking it to a local custom paint shop. If you really want it done that would be the way to go.

Good luck.

I was thinking of looking at a new one (09) if they offered the matching paint, but seems not likely according to HamRad ......Guess I'll have to look into that specialty body shop...........if I can find one with a bay that high.........I really like those that are done like that, but I've never seen a blue one..........I can see it in my mind and it looks awesome there......lol
