Looks nice, I'm fixin' on getting the rear bagged soon. I found a guy that will hook me up with 2600's and a manual valve for $300 installed so I'm in as soon as I get my e-fans installed and my roll pan worked out. Trucks looking real good but I can't stop thinking, "all that work and a stock grille?". If you want my $.02, I'd lose all the chrome(it looks kind of cheap next to all that sick ass paint) and get a new grille, something custom, at least you have something left to do as you enter shows and need to change a few things to keep winning but it's looking real real tight...........

Im missing something here.... its a trex heavy weave stainless mesh grill with a kandy pink gmc emblem (i know its hard to tell how pink it is in these pics)
The grill couldnt be further from stock.
Stock vs now

I stand corrected..... the letters were just looking a little red in the first pics. I reckon your paint is so fancy that even that grille looks a little stock-ish, still wicked sick none the less........

i do wanna kill the last of the chrome but the rear bumper had to go first so now that thats done i think a street scene front bumper and maybe a clean set of skirts if i can find some that dont look ricey and shave the rear gate...
when i get back from mexico im buying a cts for a daily driver for her and then i might decided to just body drop the damn thing.

pretty pretty good
I wouldnt say "the grill couldnt be further from stock", it looks very stock to me. Does not go with the rest of the truck at all. But then again, neither does pink.

not sure... they are uneditted.. unless this is just another jab at the paint scheme.. lol
The pink DOES go with the truck since .. uh.. the whole damn theme is pink and it was built for a chick...
But back to the grill.... does everyone think its too simple? Its the trex heavy weave chrome and we painted the gmc kandy pink to match the rest of it....
I hate to toss an expensive ass grill out the door but if everyone thinks it looks too stockish i might have to go with something different

ok.... RT... not sure how to answer this... so ill assume youre kidding.. but answer it anyway.. lol...
Yes.. it has pink highlights underneath the pearl.. and when the truck is in the right light the pearl will totally cover the accents and they dissapear.. but 99.9 percent of the time it looks just like it looks in those pics.. aside from cropping they are 100% undedited.
I don't get it. You painted it pink for a chick but you're getting her a CTS?

yea.. cause its no fun to go out of town in anymore.. it rides fine but if something were to happen or go wrong or if it were to get damaged..ect..
it became more and more of a toy and less and less of the family thing we bought it for.. so we are gonna go ahead and let the kon be a toy and get a cts for the fam car. Right now we have the 2 bikes the deville and the kon but the deville is an 02 slammed on 22s and not exactly a road trip car either

CTS will become the new toy and then you will need another ride, nice strategy

well my hope is ill go a lil racey with the cts maybe try for a v and keep some decent tire size and suspension on it and it will still be something i can drive over speed bumps in without stopping first.
I know it will be a new project but im shooting for "project road trip" lol

OH FOR SURE!!! But you gotta admit sometimes it would be nice to be able to fly down the highway at 90 and not worry about hitting a bump.. lol.. i mean i got the bikes but i want something i can throw some folks in and head to tampa just cause and not sweat bending a rim or blowing a bag or getting it scratched dinged or chipped..
i just want ONE regular ass vehicle.
