Figured I would go ahead and post up some new pictures of the new look of my truck as it is coming so far. For y'all who didn't know I was re-ended while I was at a dead stop by a NAPA auto parts truck doing 45+mph in which pushed me forward into the car in front of me damaging both the back and front of my truck. It has been a straight pain in my a** but has allowed me to get the look I have been wanting for quite some time a little quicker. So far she has got a new setup of wheels and tires (sold the old setup), color matched cowl hood, black mesh grille, and a few other things here and there. Still to come is color matching all the chrome on the front bumper with new bumper side caps with foglights, as well as fixing the rear of my truck with a roll pan :thumb:

First pic is the day I brought her home
Second pic was where she sat before the wreck
Third pic is where she sits now with more to come :D

I like the factory grilles painted better honestly just because the front ends are so square. Hood looks cool.

Plastidip your factory grill black, That middle pic of you on the track looks great. The new grill isnt bad but just not my favorite.

I would agree especially with the chevy emblem color matched... But with the new hood it does not have an area to add the retarded factory hood trim piece which finishes up the stock grille, so therefore stock grille looks empty... But def have considered it!

I like the grill! Looks good man :thumb:

Thanks the grille grows on you no doubt about it!

I already had my factory grille painted black and loved it! But as I told renodmax the new hood does not have an area to add the retarded factory hood trim piece which finishes up the stock grille, so therefore the stock grille looks empty...

And thanks! Looking forward to more pics at the track this coming fall, especially with my new look :thumb:
