HD Hoods in the garage waiting on paint...
Plan is to go with the 1.5bl. Once I have that I’ll get the authentic HD grille, HD bumper cap, and Z71 valance. Then put everything on and send it to the body shop to get a full repaint/paint match/fitment. I want the whole truck repainted the factory color and all the panel gaps reworked to match. I’m going to wait until I have all the pieces the way I want and then get it done right, also I’ll need a daily driver to make that work. Soooo when you see the daily show up you’ll know what’s coming next.

Yeah it’s slowly but surely coming together, I think most people here have seen even if it takes a year or two I eventually get it done. I should rename my build Patience.

Not suburban related but some people might want to see it cause it has das turbo!
My wife’s new to her 2008 Wolfsburg Jetta 2.0 FSI Turbo. Have plans for 1”-2” drop, 19” wheels, and performance stuff. Started the week we got it by replacing the mirror switch which was broken, new bulbs for all the running lights, oil change, and all new filters. Went today and had them put new tires on cause the ones on it were cupped badly, got it aligned, and got it tinted while it was in the shop. Looks good for now and it is really fun to drive. Got the tune software yesterday so I’ll be tuning it as soon as I have time, a little extra fuel and boost never hurt anyone haha.
As far as styling goes I’ve seen a few body kits I like but all we have planned right now is to black of the front, get the black stock HID headlights, black side markers, and cherry smoke the taillights.
@Fosscore I tried but it doesn’t fit under the suburban
