K&N intake, flowmaster exhaust, lots of lights, new tint and sound system coming soon.
Will upgrade some electronics and electrical components at some point.
Eventually a kevlar paint job and bigger lift/tires.

Last week during thanksgiving I got time to install a K&N Blackhawk COI system and a Flowmaster super 40 muffler. It sounds good but I wish it was a little louder and I went with the Super 44. Will get some pictures up soon

Nice truck! I really wanted a Z71 Burb but it wouldn't have fit in my garage so I ended up with a Z71 Tahoe. Can't wait to see what else you do to this beast!

Been busy the past month but I have got quite a bit of work done to the burb.

Lots of new lights
  • 52" Curved 500w Light Bar (SoCal Mounts)
  • Rigid SRQ lights mounted on the sides as alley lights
  • Diffused LED cubes in factory fogs - One amber and one white on each side
  • 10" LED mounted under trailer hitch as reverse light
  • Rock lights mounted in the wheel wells
  • New interior map/dome LEDs
Blacked everything out with plastidip including the front Z71 bumper, grill, emblems and badging.

Retinted the front windows with 5% Llumar Pinnacle Tint (I would highly recommend this tint)

Installed a Viper alarm and remote start.

Installed a JL Audio 12" W7 with a JL Audio HD750 amplifier.

Let me know what y'all think and if y'all have any suggestions for what I should do next.

I'm really on the fence about getting a light bar for mine or not...I wish I could mount it without drilling into the door frame. Yours looks really good though.

It is super easy to mount, just gotta take your time. There is no structural support that you have to drill into like some vehicles. I would only recommend the SoCal mounts - I have had bad luck with other brands that push the door out too much and lets air in which is super annoying down the highway.

Yeah I bet it would be annoying. I'm just trying to decide if I want to do that and drill into the body or do a stealth one behind the grill.
