05Single's virgin build thread. 03 tahoe

Little late but Merry Thanksgiving lol.

I’m a white as vanilla frosting but my wife and family are Filipino. This is how they get down , way better than the traditional turkey


And I’ll stop you right there ..... the counter top is under construction

 

[05Single]

Took a page out of 05Single’s build book (page 2 to be exact)

went to black out the billet bowtie, seen the blue reflective vinyl left over from last bowtie.

Looks white in pics but the last pic shows the actual blue glow .

 

[05Single]

Already knowing the blue by itself was going to be too bright and look like poopoo I threw some light tint over it in hopes to match the body color as close as possible
Still got the glow

 

[05Single]

But come daytime I seen it needed another layer of tint. I’ll finish that up tomorrow.


Also if you didn’t already notice I went into winter mode which includes yellow lamin-x on the fogs


mmmm....orange NOS , so bad but taste so good

did the same to wife’s car too

looks better on hers lol

 

[05Single]

Refinished some used lights I night off a buddy since he upgraded to the L bar eBay lights that everyone and their mother has now. Including a set of Denali heads I plan to retrofit later just because.

 

[05Single]

Then he wanted them back plus to have me tint them the darkest tint he could find on the interwebs (hey it’s his truck lol)

 

[05Single]

I’ll be honest , they didn’t look bad and still had usable light with hids , I was surprised

 

[05Single]

Again looks better on someone else’s vehicle tho


I do have plans for the L bar lights. Either switchback or rgb strips inside the strips

Part of winter mode I decided 2020 was such trash that I’m obligated to put on the oem fender flares . Also got a set of used led tails for cheap and threw them on for giggles. I wanna like them but as is I can’t. I think a black border is needed , maybe more.

Cleaned up the winter dubs

after , wheel polish, glass cleaner, denatured alcohol, acetone , grease/adhesive remover , lacquer thinner, paint stripper and didn’t do crap on cleaning the back of these wheels ..... Acid from Lowe’s did the trick.


This will be the last time you’ll see the Ltz 22s on here forevererererer......

then a hood polish on the face was much needed..... Magnificento, that’s French for hell yeah brother

 

[05Single]

Can you tell which one is polished and which one ain’t ?

gonna miss these ones, but daddy has to go bigger for 2021
