New state , new truck , who dis

You’re gonna save a TON on shipping.

Lol hell yeah . I got a package in 2 days here. I couldn’t believe it. Like take it back and come back in 3-5 more business days

Installed the original tails back in. Look good especially with the dual parking light mod

Got billet grille inserts locally. $30 each set. I bought both, brand new never installed all hardware in sealed packages. OG company that don’t make them anymore. Not super excited about the look but I’ll roll them for a bit. The actual pieces don’t match the box and that’s why I’m not too happy with them.

btw I only have 2 parking lights because one of the switchbacks took a crap on me, so I took both out so i didn’t have 2 on one side and one on the other side. I can’t remember the brand (auxbeam or auxito), they were given to me by a friend. So I’ll be looking into another brand here over the weekend so I can have the dual parking lights up front back.

As you can tell the spacing and how many “bars” there are on the pic vs what I have. I guess it’s a lesson learned to inspect things better when buying. But who would’ve thought.

it’s fine . I have bigger things cooking up in my head for a one-off grille later on.

You always have something cooking up in your head.....

Does your CHMSL not illuminate as a brake light? Can’t remember is supposed to?

Is it a tail light only or am I not seeing the picture correctly?

No Pepsi consumption here.

Saw you put the Z71 emblem on the new grille.

Yea the chmsl illuminates with the brake pedal pressed. The pics are parking lights only in the last post. No brakes or signals.

actually no Pepsi , only Coca-Cola while I’m practicing to be less white.

You’re so damn picky..... lol. I think our mirrors are just right for our trucks.

Agree. I can’t stand tow mirrors, and the street scene style, smaller ones look silly to me as well.

 

[Sam Harris]

Go with these! They look good.

X2..! These look great IMHO.

Glad you’re settling in, and the truck is looking great! Excellent work, as usual.

I like that style grille better than the other style. Nice score

But they sacrificed themselves for a good cause

Permaseal is what nightmares are made of. If the sealant is grey.... run away

I like the 8 and 7 vs the 10 and 9. The 10 and 9 looks to jumbled up.

I like my billet grilles how I like my girls thighs , no gaps.

Since we’re on the grille subject. Added my patent reflective bowtie

Took off the fogs to add some lamin-x yellow film. While they were out I took this chance to swap mounting brackets. As we all know aftermarket stuff is never as wrong as the original oem stuff. These brackets were weak and flimsy which made the light vibrate and shake, not much but still noticeable to bother me. They fit and I still used the higher grade adjusting bolt and components.

 

[05Single]

One issue , the oem bracket was slightly wider so I had to come up with a solution. After much thought I still ended up using zipties. They’re light and will hold. Still has the rotation functionality for adjusting up and down. This isn’t my final fog light set up anyway. But it works and they adjust and no more vibrations

Some more pics.

would be smart for a company to make similar led fogs for 00-06 Tahoe/Yukon and z71 trim. But what do I know, they’re only the most popular trucks on the road in all of North America

Front end looking good. Grrrr on the no aftermarket fog light options for the NBS.

Could only manage some JDMAstar LEDs back then too.

Yea nobody cares about the 00-06 guys anymore. Have to get creative but still keep a stock look.

They still keep coming out with stuff for the 00-06 SUV’s so I would think they would for the pickups too. There’s so many still on the road. They don’t die, just keep living on.
