    New look, 56K beware...

    Well got a new look for the truck.
    Started the day around 11 and the winds were a PITA today also:bang: This is how the day started.



    Then with a little sanding and paint.


    Then the fun work, I hope that I never have to go threw this again :bang:

    And when all back together. And that is how it ended.





    Just a recap. Before.

    And after.


    Let me know what you all think about it? I still have to cut it some more to get the tow hooks back in, will do that later on.

    i like it...how hard was it to do the tahoe front end?

    i think i have that same grill, but on the top it does not line up the way i want it to...did you have any issues with that too?

    if you look at the first pic in my sig, you can kinda see it.

    Yours doesn't fit right because it is an aftermarket piece, probably stull. I replaced the one off of my older Z71 with a Stull piece that looked exactly like yours: no bowtie frame. I got the one I have now off of a wrecked Tahoe that we had at the body shop I used to work at so I got an OEM one for free. If I were to do it again though I would definitely spend the extra money and get an OE piece, they fit and look much better.
