Default **update face lift 01 4.8**

just added a color matched plastic of a tahoe the truck looks great imo i was going to go with hd grille but changed my mind let me know what you guys think... also will be adding speed grille and thinking about color matching the grille not all of it just the dark grey part!!!

got

my drop coils and shaclkes in about a month ago i finally had some free time to install them..

this how the truck stance looked stock....


after adding 2 inch drop coils in the front and 2in drop shaclkes in the rear i got the rake look i am looking for... i might drop it 1/2 inch in the rear but as for now i like the the way it sits...



next on my to do list is cowl hood, hd grille, new badages , 3 piece wing, and in need of some rims bad lol...

also took the truck to race track and hit a 15.9 with traction issues with a little better burn out i think she could have seen a 15.8... not bad i think for a 4.8... with 3.42s and one legger...

Looks good man. I like the stance also but think maybe 1 more inch in the back would do the trick.

Looks great man. I think that 1/2 inch drop in the rear would be killer.
