Why you ever sell that Robbie?

It was paid off and sitting. Rather have the cash. Stripped it and sold it outright.

Moving on to the next. But I really do miss that truck the most.

Would like to see how this looks. As being a "cover" anxious to see the tightness of the fit.

the fitment is ok. THey Really need it to be a replacement bumper. In reality this cover is practically a bumper itself. Its Just as heavy as the oem and its a little tight by the headlights.

Damn Ian I got the Engine Oil Low Add Oil message a couple of days ago at about 33% oil life remaining. When engine was shut off the dipstick would NOT have any oil which scared me to death. Did an oil change and only took out alittle more than 4 quarts.

56k on Esky and 78k on the Avy.

Mine did this at roughly 42k miles (couple years ago) and GM replaced the pistons and rings under warranty. I dropped it off at the dealer Sunday night... took them the week and had it back to me by Thursday night. Haven't had a problem with it since. When I had this done they said they had been doing one of these per week.

On topic... that bumper cover looks great! Can't wait to see the pics one completed!
