IMO, both have some things going for them, but both have things killing them. Ironically both have too much chrome.
I love the 11' Chevy HD front ends, but not when they are a big chrome chunk. Thank god he has the fog lights to break up that bumper some. Color matching at least the upper bumper piece (like yours is) would be a start, the entire front matched would be ideal. Color match the handles and mirrors too.
The GMC would look better if those mirrors, caps, and especially the tailgate handle were matched. To me the chrome is so out of place on a clean truck. GMC goofed up on the new HD hood with that plastic in the center. 1/2 ton > HD in this case.
I like that both are lowered and have clean OEM wheels, Sierra could use a couple more inches.
Just my opinion on each. They are your trucks though, so do as you please.

The GM is the cleaner of the 2 imo. That HD front end looks terrible on that Chevy, way too big and goofy looking even when they are on the HD's..... That and way too damn much chrome!
The GMC could stand to lose that black plastic thing in the middle of the hood and then it would look alright. Just use the 2010 and older HD GMC hood......I would ditch the chrome caps on the mirrors and the handles if I owned it. Would debadge as well but leave the moulding on the side..... I'm odd like that.

I like that 2011 HD front, finally a one piece bumper. Looks great!
The GMC is cool, but loses IMO due to having those ugly texas badges and chrome cheap tail gate handle.
Color match that GMC and add a denali grill and it will rule, along with debadging.

Why do you take your shoes off to shoot the pics? I see you have left your loafer in the 1st and 3rd pic of the Chevy...
Both trucks would look more.... streetable with some paint matching which has already been mentioned.
More importantly then looks... in my book. Who is faster?
