buRRp's 96 Silverado C2500

[buRRp]

Well I figured I would make a thread for the plans I have for the truck. It probable won't be much but it will be something. So here is a short list of some plans I have for it.

1. Paint the grill and visor red.
2. Redo the rims black. Maybe powdercoat or plasti-dip.
3. Remove body molding and Line-x below the body line.
4. Put a diesel front bumper on it and put fog lights in the openings.
5. Maybe lower it a bit, 2/4 drop.
6. Tint the windows.

I'm sure there will be more but that's what I have for now. If anyone has some other thoughts or suggestions fire away.

Here's how it sits now...

Love the truck! (looks a little familar)

I'm just posting these pictures so you know what the truck will look like when you do these things.. mines seen a few faces over time.. I wasn't a fan when i color matched mine, but.. here ya go.

Not to hi-jack your thread but this will kind of give you a idea on what the truck will look like when you make some of those changes, to see what you like! Glad to be your twin!

So my exhaust on the truck was not in very good shape. From behind the muffler back it looked like a kid cut it up to fit and welded it on. It was hanging by wires at the tips. So I decided to cut it off behind the muffler and dump it. Here's a few pics.

LOL. Was starting to strip the black paint off the grill the other day. Got some off and the guy that painted it sanded all the chrome off it. Its just gray plastic under the paint. So I either need to find a new grill or do something different with it.
