Thanks man that does look pretty tough. I am gonna de-badge the crap out of it once I get it here though. I am going to rip off the "silverado", "4x4", and "Chevrolet" emblems as soon as I get in the driveway....LOL.

ya I figured you would be debadging lol.

Don't know if you have one already or not Jim, but get a 3M pinstripe remover... I will never again touch that glue w/o using one of those. Its like a little eraser with a fitting to go in the end of a drill... its so easy it almost takes the fun out of debadging

should be 3M P/N: 07499

I picked mine up at a local Napa

If you upgrade on the extended cab you can put that on this truck, or make this one your race truck
