Going to paint match the bars and mesh will be black. Basically it will look like what the premiums do but mesh will be black.

She is all lowered. Seems really slammed up front compaired to my Tahoe. Needs a lot of trimming on the front fender wells. I really wish I would have done 295 now. Also has a crap load of camber so today or tomorrow I need to get it alligned.

truck looks good..it might be me..but it seems like there is so much chrome on the front of the truck and the back behind the rear doors is nothing.. looks odd to me.

Maybe you are doing something about that i dunno.

Yeah I know. Soon a lot of it will be color matched. Also I guess it isn't that low compaired to my Tahoe. Just seems like it. It might be just because of all the camber.

Looking good. Still need the roof rack ends color matched (instead of black) so you notice it up there and doesn't look like you stole it from a black SUV.

Also talked to a brake company about a hook-up. I know a car designer that does a lot a vehicles for SEMA manily were building cars for Lexus but he is doing one for Hyndai and one of their sponsors are a brake company called WP Pro Brakes. The do a lot of brakes for euro cars. Talked to them about maybe a sponsor but damn things are really really expensive, 7grand for fronts. But of course they would really really hook me up on the price. The brakes are insane though. 12 pistion fronts with 16.2" rotors. So we will see. This is what they would look like.

Those brakes are retarded. Any more pistons and it'll wrap half way around the rotor

For $7k (just for the fronts) it'd better depress the brake pedal for you :lol:

Haha, but if I can get them for cheaper then Wilwoods I might do it. Also they would use the truck for marketing. But we will see.

Yeah after talking it was 6k for fronts and back. 4grand discount they gave but don't think I am going to do it. I will just wait and get the 16" Wilwoods.
