ericwf Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 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; 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 LundAwaiting Corsa to finish the catback exhaust for the SS. Had a Corsa on my vette and loved it; Oh yeah, painted the calipers too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tg18 Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd Todd, I'm confident I will the wheels, but at this point, I'm not sure about the tires. 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. Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcairns Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 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 ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericwf Posted August 3, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 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); Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmcswain Posted August 4, 2003 Report Share Posted August 4, 2003 What brand or make of mud guard / flaps?????????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericwf Posted August 4, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2003 What brand or make of mud guard / flaps?????????? I was afraid someone would ask that! 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). If I'm by there in the near future, I'll look'em up and email you the brand! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see the ripples/waves in ur picture and the colors dont match. Sorry I hate to be the bearer of bad news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schklege Posted August 4, 2003 Report Share Posted August 4, 2003 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!)
