Default 99-02 extcab SS conversion?

anybody ever do an SS conversion or have pics of on a EC Silvy 99-02... like the cladding, 99-02 SS bumper cover, rear bumper cover, wheels etc? or even a 03-06 GMC now that they make the SS bumper cover for that like Spoolin has... ive never seen pics of it before and find it a little odd that its never been done. thats all lol, thanks

I think the main reason is the cost...the cladding from GM is $$$. Most just throw on the bumper cover and wheels and call it good...the rear bumper won't look right w/out the rear cladding.

The actual cladding, and the Street Scene covers, dont line up. What I mean is the cladding makes the truck wider than the cover is. The factory SSS bumper, and cladding are even(obviously). Thats 1 reason other than the cost that I didnt put the cladding on mine.

so a Street Scene would be narrower if you lined it up next to a GM SS cover?

That is correct sir. The structures are so different. Its hardly noticable realy, but id say the cladding would maybe make it a lil more obvious. But like was stated, its expensive as hell anyways, not to mention something else to paint...
