Here are pics of it before, during and after the repairs that I personally did. Still waiting to get the lifted bumper brackets to attach front bumper. Please let me know what yall think!!!! Its good to be back on here, was overseas. I ended up selling the Yukon and getting this 2000 Z71.

Thanks alot guys for the compliments!!!!! The guy hit a coupla mailboxes then fell into a ditch!!! The truck has a 6" suspension lift and a 3" body lift on 33's but im saving to get 35's. There was no frame damage thank god!!! The main impact was on the hood and center bumper. What do u guys think of the Mickey thompson wheels? Should I keep em or go with blackones? Thanks again guys!!!

Adam, I couldnt find an aftermarket bumper with the foglight holes so I went with this PTM one. Besides I am going to use the factory switch and wiring to run some KC's on my brushguard in the future. Justin, as far as the bumper being twisted, you are VERY right. I noticed that after we threw it on, and again thats what I get for buying aftermarket ****!!!! lol I can live with it!! All I need is my license plate bracket and I was thinking of putting a Z71 decal on the skid plate.

Saving for nicer rims and 36's but now my Transfer case is taking a shit!! Its got a crack and leaking fluid, plus who knows how bad the pump rub is. Anyone know where I can get a Tech build on swapping the Autocrap with a NP243?? BowtieFreak, you got any recommendations or ideas!? Thanks again guys!!!!
