Color matching bumpers and grill.
Pulling off the front and rear bumpers tonight, going to sandblast them real good/ hit them with etching primer and shoot them midnight blue to match. Matching grill shell and hood trim piece and a billet grill also. I'll try to post up some in progress and completed pictures. Next full debadge and molding removal.

It's a GMC
Oh holy mother of god is the front end a major pain in the *** to take apart on these new trucks. Leave it to gm to make you have to remove the top part of the bumper before you can take the ****** grill and headlights out. That top of the bumper trying to figure that bitch out. GM shop manuals suck it's a two step process according to the manual. Back bumper wasn't much easier you should check out the nasty clip those sorry bastards used to hold the spare tire let down cover in place. Try to post pics tonight late

Yea! I was replacing my grille and freaking cursing and yelling, "What the hell is holding this thing on!!!!???" Luckily I didn't break any of the tabs on either piece. That would have ruined my day.
