btw, you can do that swap for less than $1000 if you don't mind hunting around for parts. I got all the parts needed to do the swap for $1200, add in another $320 for the projectors. This price is dealer cost
I got da hookups
Anyway, if you frequent eBay, you will find various pieces for this swap for cheap. I saw the bumper cover go for $120 used but flawless(supposedly) and in factory pewter color, I paid $250 for it at cost, regular is like almost $400

The only part you have to paint is the bumper cover which comes in black primer from the dealer...then you're set

What if you rented a Denali for a day and swapped center consoles by "accident"?

Anyone have more picture than the one that Chingon has in his signature?
I want to see how the bumper cover looks compared to the lines of the bottom of the truck. Basically, I just want a side view at the least.

Thanks

Yes, more pictures of YOUR truck would be nice. I just want to get a better idea of how it looks with the rest of the truck. You can send me a link or an e-mail.

I have a '03 Silverado. I sanded the upper and lower plastic peices of my bumper and painted them body color, and put in a carridge works grill & billet bowtie for under 650 bucks. It looks killer too !!!

Here's what my truck looks like from the side....


Yes, the bumper does go lower than the rest of the truck which I really don't like. I am thinking of taking it to a shop and getting it clipped so the bottom of the front bumper cover is even with the rest of the truck, but I don't know how that would make the bumper look.
If you look at my sig, the middle section of the bumper (smooth part, below the line on the top of the bumper and above the mouth/fog lamp part) that is about 4 inches I think, I would like to get about 2 or 3 inches removed from that, but I don't know if it would looks stupid or whatever....
