I like it, took me a minute to look at it and get used to it. But it's cool, well done.
looks eleventybillion times better with the truck front end.
i determined a long time ago if i ever somehow owned one of these, this is what i'd do
Damn man, you just took my idea :sad:
That thing looks incredible. Great work doode
that night at the sam's meet i told you it would look great. . . you're welcome. but for real i love it bro.
looking good, gonna look even better when all painted.
Dig it! Black billet grill black outline bowtie and finish the bumper and its goin to look sharp!
looks good wei
I like it! Isnt your tahoe boosted?
thanks for the comments guys...yea as soon as i get the bumper painted ill be changing it up here and there til i get it right and ill be posting up pics....yea its still boosted but the new front made the intercooler look way smaller compared to the Tahoe front lol
Looks sick dude!
I agree that the mesh and bowtie would look good black, but everything else looks perfect.
wow...now that looks great!
Looking good bro.
I FINALLY GOT THE BUMPER PAINTED ALL I NEED IS JUST TO LIFE IT ABOUT HALF A INCH SO I WONT HAVE A GAP ...AND I STILL NEED TO PUT THE LOWER VALANCE...

:drool:
I didnt notice that gap as much when it was chrome, but its a little more visable now. The spot for the tow hooks looks kinda weird also...are there ways to get rid of that?
They make a billet insert.Quote:

looks really good. i'd leave the lower valance off.
Just wondering, was this conversion a pretty simple matter of just bolting the new front end on in place of the old one, or were there alot of modifications required? Ever since you posted those pics I am really thinking about trading in the Silverado for a newer slightly used Tahoe. In black for me tho. Cant get your truck outta my head. I really love that look and I always wondered what this kind of conversion would look like in person.
i think i woulda liked it better in chrome but still looks good :)
it was pretty simple just had to do some welding for the new bumper brackets cuz the hd ones sit like 3 inches lower and the hood latch had to be moved front i used the hd upper core support with the latch bracket ...ill post some new pics soon with the lower valance and the gap between the bumper and grill fixed...thnks im really glad ya like itQuote:
