What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[ArcticYukon]

Idk man if you see a can on the side of the road it gets pretty faded I think a set of HIDs blasting on it for a long time would fade it out real quick hi heat paint would work best

True, but it's the UV rays that do the fading, not just the heat. I think it would hold up much longer than sitting in the sun, personally.

that whine come with a aftermarket HU? bad ground is where id start.

Yes aftermarket head unit but it’s only out of one speaker, and i happened literally as I was driving

Mine went out this past week too it’s definitely a pain but if you get the right angle it goes smoothly

Yeah once i figured out the clip it wasn't too bad.

I’m gonna just use some high heat engine enamel when I do it. They’ve got lots of colors online

None that ship to me, hazmat lol. I only have a few to select from locally. Idk just thinking outside the box, these will be facing away from the hid bulb. Towards the lens so I think theyll be fine

picked up push pin clips to mount the fender flares with, got one on after work. took bout a 1/2 hr being i had to drill the holes. lucky for me the 05 work truck has flares and i pulled one pin to figure how large the hole should be, then a bit of masking tape where the holes are, then marked and then drilled.

the rest will go faster. learning curve as always.

this is wet sanded. im mounting them to be able to buff em out better/easier.

and im going with nailed the color!!!!!!

im going out of my way to get the rest mounted now. im liking this look so much better. makes it not look like a 1500 lol

went with this place. https://repaintsupply.com/ its by paint code, reviews were good. also they sell a larger can by like 5-6 oz's for the same price as many other brands. iirc it was 21 a can. bought 4 cans used 3 got 3 coats, then i got one can of clear, got two good coats out that. wish i got another can really.

i want to paint the chrome part of the grill red next, was hoping id have enough, but no way one cans gonna cut it. so ill order up anther can and one more of the clear and get on that over summer.

Rotated my tires, checked my spacers for proper torq, 2,000 miles and going strong. Had a little dirt from rainy days but a quick wipe down and they looked almost new again.

Got my nice chromed center caps today. Bought them for my 22's, but they're just a hair too small.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

Plastidip them in place or use enough coats of plastidip on them until they fit better.
