That gray does look pretty fantastic on the high-top and with the details blacked-out.

(Starts to look....almost....Government/Black Ops of some sort..... )

It looks awesome.

But it also looks HOT. That van baking in the sun will get warm!

No matter what the color, it's a LARGE block of color. I actually like the stripes on there now, but some kind of stripe, or two-tone color combo might help break it up.

Snow camo wrap with a light shade of blue as one color? That would be quite different.

I've got a slate blue one with the ph top, also an older one in off-white with the ph top. It's amazing how much hotter the slate blue is when parked in direct sun. As in twenty degrees hotter or more. Most of our camping is forest and really high elevation but where you like to go should factor into your color choice so you're comfortable. One great thing about the slate blue is it gets so dusty so quickly that it doesn't tend to draw much attention as a light color.

Wow, that's a very specific, unique recommendation. Where'd you come up with that one?

The van that BroncoHauler posted is one of my favorites.

UJOR did a van that was painted a Lamborghini grey. I thought it looked pretty nice too...
