Default Day at the spa

When I brought her home, she looked like this



After a couple of days removing some outdated accessories, I cleaned her up, gave her a clay treatment, a little makeup, and a good bath, and some "skin" treatment. Here she is now. Needs some tint, and some new shoes. Hope to have both taken care of soon

Ill let you know Lance. I got some factory GMC 17's that actually look good, but I need tires. Then another friend said hed sell me his old 20's if he still had them, so Im waiting to decide what to do. More than likely Ill get tires for the 17's then hell find the 20's lol

Wow, what a transformation.

That is one of my favorite parts of getting a new vehicle!

How much trouble did you have taking off the side molding?, I need to do this on my Z71.

Thanks for all the compliments!

Mike, no worries man she's definatly going to be taken care of. Even let her try on a new pair of shoes they didn't fit just right though so we'll have to find something else.

The side molding came off just fine, the adhesive was a bitch though. It was easier than the badges but still a pita
