    Hmm... What to do next?

    Ima most likely barrow a gun from the paint department at work so I'll see what they have. I work in the movie industry. I'm a mould maker, and I specialize in fiberglass casting, as well as resins, fast-cast plastics and foams. Pretty much it's my job to take an object (doesn't matter what it...

    Hmm... What to do next?

    Ima spray it in two quick pass's each coat with a gun, so I'm sure I'll have no running drips. Haha. I've never experimented with painting before, but I use a paint gun everyday for resin coating and fiberglass work. Ima take it in the booth this Saturday, and I should have pics up...

    Hmm... What to do next?

    Dude you guys are the best! I woulda done it wrong and had a peeling grille in no time. Haha. I think this is going to be this weekends new project. That and hopfully get some TYC headlights. Everywhere I look there sold out except for the luxury ones that I don't want. Anyone know of a good...

    Hmm... What to do next?

    Never too late for a compliment, haha so thanks raptorforme! So just a quick question for you about colormatching grills. I know a stock grille is just plastic, and I'm pretty sure all aftermarket grille's are too, so how do you go about painting it? Must you strip the chrome off first? Use a...

    Hmm... What to do next?

    I think your right. Yesterday my system was playing perfect. Then today, My kenwood excelon headunit kept putting itself into "protect" mode, which locks the unit from damage. I read up on the problem and found that the kenwood headunit does this when there's a short, or a surge of energy, to...

    Hmm... What to do next?

    A buddy of mine photoshop'd my pic so I could see what it'd look like blacked out. And your all right about the grill. Wayyy too similar with a navigators grill and won't flow good with the rest of my hoe. But the stock grill I have now would look great powdercoated black, along with the chrome...

    Hahaha I thought so but also thought there was more to it.

    Hmm... What to do next?

    If I do go with those headlights, and lets just say the projectors aren't powerful enough. I have some 10000k hid ballasts laying around I can just throw in. I just like the black look. As for the grill...I don't get what that emoticon you used means. I'm using a iPhone so it doesn't let me...

    What do you guys think about this grill/light settup? Grill-http://www.topgearautosport.com/part/A101LDKC150/Chevy_Tahoe_1995-1999_Black_Billet_Grille.html Lights-http://www.topgearautosport.com/part/A101LSC2102/Chevy_Tahoe_1994-1999_Black_Projector_Headlights_and_Bumper_Lights_Set.html...

    Hmm... What to do next?

    That's why it's taken me so long to do the gears, and I've been suffering with the 8-9 MPG just so I don't get em done half ass. I just gotta nip-it-in-the-bud soon before I need a new transmission as well. Haha. Thanks again homie.

    Hmm... What to do next?

    I just wish I could do the labor myself and save some mula! The labor is the only thing that kills me when paying for gearing. Plus finding a reputable shop around here to do the work is kinda sketchy. I don't want someone tinkering around with my gears and have then blame the problem on me...

    Hmm... What to do next?

    I guess I'll just have to save up and do it the right way first time around. I just wish it wasn't so god dam expensive. I recently almost bought a turbo-charger kit for shit n giggles so I don't think gearing is that far down the road. It's either mod my axle's or my engine. And my MPG is...

    Hmm... What to do next?

    Thanks again 07burb! Ima have to check out these websites tonight. I'll have a new update on my truck within the week. Let's just say it's payday, and rents already been paid. Haha. Quick gearing question- Is it dangerous to re-gear the rear end of a 4x4 hoe without doing the front? What if I...

    Hmm... What to do next?

    Thanks for all the positive feedback guys. Bowtie freak-talking about nice Tahoe's...holy shit yours is clean. I was wanting to go with a brush guard similar to yours, and possibly do a cowl hood settup. But as for debadging I think ima take 07 burbs advice and keep the moulding. Something...
