Gave Snow another minor facelift in the past week or so. Chsnged out my factory mirrors for some Factory OEM tow mirrors woth turn signals i got from work that I think are for a 2006 2500. Everything bolted right up and no mods needed. Plus I now have turn signals in the glass so that's a plus. Also this weekend I painted my wheels. Scuffed up my stockers and put down 2 coats of aluminum etch primer so the paint would stick then lightly scuffed and added 4 coated of Duplicolor low gloss black engine enamel. . What do you guys think?

So do I. I couldn't believe how well they came out. Guy I work with did them to his Super Duty and they lasted atleast 2 yrs until he sold it. Not sure after that. I just was having trouble finding a set of aftermarket rims that I liked

Yea those are nice but until I do a 6 inch lift I'm not putting 20s back on my Kon. Thats all they come in

I really like the tow mirrors, but still unsure how they would look on my Denali, maybe color matched they wouldn't sick out so bad.

Your Kon looks like a beast!! Black rims set it off nicely. HD hood will look great.

That kind of why I painted the wheels. Not enough black on the truck. Now it looks 10x better

Thanks. Nothing looks cleaner than a white and black vehicle.

It looks great man, I'm goin for a white and black theme myself

I've had it for almost 2 years now and its come along way all around from when I got it. From audio upgrades, performance upgrades, exterior and interior upgrades and suspension upgrades.

Looks great. Have you considered leveling your mirrors? I always hated the way the NBS tow mirrors pointed upwards. A real simple mod involving some washers and a few minutes of your time. Made my Sierra look better and had a better view from the drivers seat once I leveled mine.

How do you do it?
