Idk if the grill would work black.
The blue looks killer. I would say paint match the grill but leave the emblem silver to match the wheels and the grills black.

The grill all black would look our of place imo

Wouldn't it be too much blue? Need a little contrast.

Look at foss's Tahoe. It's not too much blue and any other color would look goofy and out of place. Leave the grille chrome or ptm it blue

It does look good. Keeping the inserts silver helps.

I dont think so. Not if he does the mesh black and emblem silver

Whoa whoa calm down people lol.
The grille will be ptm blue. It's a HD grille, just haven't gotten there yet, has a crack and needs to be fixed. I wanna paint the mirrors and grille at the same time.

Reason why I left the lower valance black. Partly because it would be too much blue and I know it would get tore up during the winter up here.
That being said , yes fosscore's is all blue and his tahoe has always been my #1 motivation since the beginning and the all blue works on his, so the main reason is I had to make one thing different from his. Ain't nobody having twins of my truck lol

Thanks for the compliments. Ptm and drop should've been my first mods to do , such a huge change in look

Sounds like a plan. I was thinking one of those 2 part epoxy in the syringe deal.

 

[adventurenali92]

Making excellent progress! Those LTZ 20s look good! Nice tails too!
