Question 2011 Silverado -- Suggestions

Wanted to post a quick thread and ask for some suggestions.

2011 Silverado ExtCab Z71 4x4

Performance: So far I've done exhaust, don't plan on doing anything else performance wise until the warranty is up. Plus it gets rather good mileage as it is.

Exterior: Debadged/molded, color matched emblem, bed cover. Wheels are 22" TBSS Replicas with Nitto 420s.

Suspension: In the Process of doing a 3/5 - 4/6 Belltech Drop. Spindles, adjustable shocks, flip kit and hangers.

Interior: Leather seats with heat, leather wrapped pillars, leather wrapped dash pad, leather wrapped grab handle, esky shifter, deleted rear rests.

Planning on rear fender liners or undercoating.

Looking for suggestions, thanks.

Plan on undercoating the rear fender wells.

Bed Rug

Painted Rear Bumper

Of course removing the steps after the drop.

Possibly a black grill and tow hooks.

Nice looking truck, I like what you've done on the interior. You need to lower it to pull off having those wheels look right. Keep up the good work!

I was able to get the katzkins seat kit for less than I could buy materials for to do it from scratch like I usually do. Everything else was custom.
