Well I let my LB7 go this past week and finally picked up an '06 LBZ! I've always wanted one so I'm definitely a happy camper :D It has Gmax kit with 1056 converter, lift pump, head studs, full egr delete, front end brace kit, and 3" downpipe into 5" straight exhaust. It has EFI DSP5 but I'm not impressed with the tuning. I will order tunes as soon as my wallet allows!

Heres my old baby, it was sad to let her go:




But here is my new pride and joy:

Haha yea I want different wheels just haven't decided which way to go. Chrome? Or machined? Like a set of BMFs maybe. The fuel throttles look good too. Think I may put 6" on her first

Yes that color was available stock. It's greystone metallic as stated above. I have a same truck in my sig. Love that color. Looks good at all times. And very easy color to keep clean looking.

You don't see it much but I'm pretty sure it's a factory color. I've seen it on several older (00~04) Chevy's.

Thanks guys! But yea my older one was factory color. It was cashmere metallic? It's Cashmere somthing I know. I definitely like the new color just deciding in which direction to go. What's y'all's thought on color matching the front bumper cover and valance? Possibly mirrors?

I think the front bumper and chrome on the grille would look sick color matched! Leave the mirrors and handles black and throw something like the bmf death metal black color rims! Just my .02

I'm glad I'm not the only one thinking this haha I'm definitely looking at BMF's. A 20" for sure. I've always loved 20" rims.

I think it'd look killer color matched completely. With just chrome bumpers and wheels. Everything else grey stone.

Yea I think I'm definitely set on color matching. Not exactly sure on what yet, handles,mirrors,etc. but I've always wanted to color match a truck and always find myself going black accents and machined wheels. Not only that, a color matched truck looks so clean to me. What you think thatll run me $ wise? would a place like MAACO suffice?
