I Painted the chrome door line, chevy emblems, and wheels.
New Black Taillights, not tinted.
SIlver Painted Grill and custom painted license plate. DOes it all look good??

I will be flipping the wheels around so they are all black unless there is any way around it?

I would like to add:
- Black Step Bars
- Smoked Halos and lows (what brand and can i install myself?)
- And would like to get a 3 or 4 inch lift? Where can i get this done, and what all do i need to do it?

I am new too some of this stuff, any suggestions?? (Going for lifted Teen blacked out Look)

THANKS

no, just taking them off and flipping them so the white letters are on the inside and the black tire on outside. i don't like the white letters, is there any other way than flipping the tires around?

i've actually given some thought to doing that, but just couldnt pull myself to go that low. the fact that you saw a guy doing that = priceless

save myself the embarrassment and get some nittos, although i'm liking the grabber ats, but they have red lettering i believe

we used the best adhesion promoter we could get.. and sprayed them with a paint with as much flex additive as you would use on motorcycle plastics.. and the side steps still chipped.. and i was on airbags sitting on the ground so mine got used alot less than yours will..


That was paint not spray liner.. but its just a personal experience story about spraying those things.

if you take the side steps off you can take them to a place that does rhino lining and linex.

would it look good if i painted the chrome part of the front with that bed-liner, or any other color that would look good.?
you know the part with the chevy bowie in the middle, and the grill; that whole chrome border that goes out to the headlights that is the same color as the tahoe on the z71 model? And/ or the chrome bumper black??

also, anyone know anything about lifting mine like 3 or 4 inches?
