not bad,not bad at all, but i think something cheap that would really jazz it up would be pulling off the moldings on the side, and putting on some color matched smoothie door handles, did that with my truck, when it was all said and done it cost 30 and looks really good. but either way its a well done truck

ya, buuuuuddy! Very nice! I like the powdercoat wheel look. Expensive procedure?

.....it's missing a GMTC decal on that back window though, isn't it..?..

yeah i want to pull that trim off but unfortunaltey due to some body work if i pull it off i will have the outline of where they painted around it but it will be getting removed in the future it is on the list. the handles are color matched but where do you get the smoothy handles from. Also i forgot to mention that truck has 110,500 miles on it and i use it to respond to fire and ems calls as well. and before anyone says anything the window gaurds are functional thats why they are there and they are color matched for that reason lol Ive had people tell me about those too

Actually, I like the window guards.. and not because I have them as well!

Be careful with running calls with that truck.. I won't tell you how many deer have met the front end of my vehicle while going to a call, day OR night!

Ok, I'll tell you... 4! FOUR! Three didn't make it, one got swept off his feet, bounced on the hood and then did the cartoon running in place on the pavement trying to get back in the woods.

I don't know.. there's just something about a van with five rotating blue/white lights on top, blue/white double strobe on the dash, and strobe headlights with 200W siren yailing that just doesn't warn them enough that something is coming down the road...

*grumbles*

And didn't mention it before.. but congrats on the 3rd place!
