Dressed Up!

Well, think I've got'er dressed to my liking. Some won't like the chrome,

but it trips my trigger.

 

Special thanks to Lee for instructions on mounting the nerf bars; :flag:

Nerf bar install instructions

 

Lee, I'm not sure why, but I had to do 1" spacers in the back, did 1" in the front

just to keep'em level with the truck. Turned out great, I love the look and my wife

is pleased with the assist of getting in/out of the truck! I bet Chevy comes out with

a modified nerf bar kit for the SS in the future.

  • The wheels are American Eagel (Boss 307)

  • The grill by Carriage Works

  • Bugshield is a Lund

Awaiting Corsa to finish the catback exhaust for the SS. Had a Corsa on my

vette and loved it; :thumbs:

 

Oh yeah, painted the calipers too...

Hi Eric. Hey I dig how you are changing little things to make your truck just the way YOU want it. I can't stand driving something bone stock, even though my fiance thinks I have a problem with leaving well enough alone! To each their own, eh. BTW did you/do you want to sell your factory rims and tires? Let me know if you are getting rid of them. Thanks alot.

Todd, I'm confident I will the wheels, but at this point, I'm not sure about the tires.:confused:

I've noticed the new tires ride a little rougher than the factory tires. Give me a few

days and I'll let you know.

Sounds good Eric.  Isn't it sweet to have poeple dig your truck!

Yes it is TG, and there are a lot of sweet trucks on this site to dig!

 

 

It is a little hard to tell, since the pic is not zoomed in on it, but I think the blue calipers look good. I might try that someday (yes, I will wax the truck first, Lee  ).

 

Was just waiting for someone to ask (sorry, forgot to take any pics before putting the

wheels back on);

What brand or make of mud guard / flaps?????????? :cool:

I was afraid someone would ask that! :uhoh:

I cannot remember the brand but I got them at Pepboys, they are size 5, and

ran $24.95 a pair (close to that anyway, but the size I'm sure about). :rolleyes:

 

If I'm by there in the near future, I'll look'em up and email you the brand!

Nice truck, ericwf. I'm glad someone else has been "Lee"-gitimized (with those nerf bars).

 

I like the blue calipers with those wheels.

 

And I'm with Ultimate on the mismatched panels--those would drive me crazy until fixed. (In fact, mine did!)
