Default Newb with a new truck

Been on Tech for Yrs and our local board OKGMP.com. Just got me a 07 Silverado Z71 LT and im ready to start modding it but i cant find much aftermarket stuff for the new trucks except on ebay and they dont have much either. Is the aftermarket bussiness behind on theses trucks or am i not looking good enough?

exterior, some minor performance, lifts. Up at my work there are 5 new body style trucks here and they are all black. we all look exactly the same so im pretty much trying to change the looks at the moment. I pretty much know what i want to do with the performance mods.
I have been looking at some HIDs, grill, side mud flares, bed cover, and was hoping to find some diffrent type of headlights maybe black.

On the Hids im worried about them always running during the day with the DRLs. I had the DRLs disabled on my 99 but dunno much about this model.

Open to other mods also, nothing to drastic performance wise. i will be traveling from Okc to Irving Tx almost every weekend beginning this dec. So maintaing some decent MPG is a must.

Nice pick up!

As for the DRL's have you tried pressing the dome override button four times, they are suppose to turn off. maybe that can help you abit!
