Very nice views, awesome looking truck.

Hey did you change or paint the GMC logo on the front grill?


Thanks for noticing! I ordered 3m 1080 vinyl in gloss black... I placed it over the logos and cut out the letters with a sharp hobby knife.. So basically a vinyl wrap of the red letters... I did it myself, but im sure a shop could do this with no problem and pretty cheaply

I noticed that you missed a few corners, I can see some red sticking out.. I made the same mistake as you and ordered the vinyl that you cut yourself.. I didnt even try doing it, as it's far to easy to mess up and also to easy to cut into your emblem with the razor. I then ordered the pre-cut kit, and it took me 10 mins to install and came out perfect.. The truck looks awesome..
