Default 03 silverado reincarnated into 00 sierra

If you saw my build thread, my turbo 03 silverado stepside was totaled, bought a 2000 gmc, and used what I could off my crashed truck to build this. came out pretty good. i basically used the gmc for the frame, nose, and cab.

Looks awesome, love it. Gotta say, I prefer the Chevy front end, but the GMC looks good too. Get the bumper cap painted and it will be done.

Thanks guys, in the future I will paint match the bumper cap. The other truck was fully loaded, this is manual everything, and ac delete, so I think I lost a little weight. I also went from a 62mm turbo, to a 70mm and will be going SD tune. On maf tune with the 62mm at 9lbs it went 12.09 at 110, hoping to go straight into 11's and on same boost level with the weight reduction, and turbo upgrade.
