Default New pics and a few changes. What do you guys think?

Painted matched the handles and mirriors again, GMC emblem is paint matched, painted the chrome on the bumper and grill with black chrome paint, also paint matched tailgate handle. New tail lights to match my third brake like. Had some stock 16" wheels sandblasted and then clear coated them Running a 275/45/16 in the rear and a 245/50/16 out front.

A few new shots.

I like LED tails... just not the eurotrash ones...

also, you definitely neet to get more tire on that thing, looks like it has honda wheels on it right now

Like the work on the front end though


Too bad the big back wheels and narrowing didnt end up working

not too shabby, i would run a taller tire or lower the truck some more and paint the mirror caps (white or black chrome). the wheels look different, sandblasting them kind of made them look permanantly dirty, maybe have them powder coated black chrome or gunmetal to flow with the bumper and grill. looks good though.

The black chrome on the bumper came out nice. You own a spray gun or pay someone? Rattle can?

The wheels are too small, it looks like a Matchbox car. Those tail lights are aweful, they look like something out of a Fast & Furious movie.
