Damn! Now that is sweet! I love the color and the grille. I'm a big fan of grilles for some reason, I got one on my Esky.

What else you can plan on doing to it?

I just changed out my DRL's / turn signal from the ugly orange bulb to some nice LED's , Im going to try to de-badge it before the end of the weekend , and order some new badges , I plan on getting the badge that says "Denali" and painting it black and mounting / "sticking it" above the rear door hitch handle.

then its

15" kicker l7 or 2 10" l7's not sure yet ,in a custom box that hugs the rear seat
aem cold intake
programmer
navigation lockpick
18% tint on the front glass and 18% tint over stock in the rear
1.5 - 2.5 truxxx lift
some 20 inch tires with good tread prolly ,cooper zeon ltz's , had them on a truck i had a few years ago and loved them
then prolly a nice roof rack , some chains for the tires

So I got up this a few mornings ago and started my car from my kitchen , got ready to go out the door, and as I was walking outside I heard a bad knock/ticking , very loud coming from the engine compartment. As I went to investigate I opened the hood , and I couldn't pin point it , but it did go faster as I accelerated, After the engine warmed up it disappeared.

Next day same routine came out side and noticed the ticking again, so I called the dealer being the car was only 2 weeks old and told them I'm brining it in. The guy told me from the sounds of it , it could be a injector , or valve , or lifter , or piston slap? what do you guys think ? any experience with this? they had it all day and couldn't pin point the sound because it was to warm out for the engine to stay cold long enough to pin point it. I asked what he thought from initial sound that was short lived today and he said it was the wrong sound for piston slap. confused is this a common problem ?

Sounds like the piston slap. I hear it when it is really cold. I did some research and hear it's a very common issue and GM won't do anything about it unfortunately.
