This is the 03 Z71 I just picked up. Had some basic chrome rims on it and a billet grill and pretty much stock besides that. I'm pretty broke right now, but still wanted to make it more "me" so I painted the rims, grill and bow tie satin black. I think it goes pretty good with the tint and other black accents. What ya think?

Also, a few questions about the dash lights n stuff. One, my shift indicator doesnt light up. I'm guessing its a bulb that can be replaced from the back side of the cluster but haven't dove into that yet. Also, there's a handful of dash lights, like one of the 4WD buttons and the headlight switch (including some of the steering wheel buttons) that dont light up. How hard are those to replace? Also, I've seen some posts about a cheap 3/5 lowering kit? Any info on that as well would be greatly appericated. Thanks!

i believe the lights should be pretty easy to replace but someone else may have to chime in also i think that it is a little harder to lower a 4wd like yours but also someone else will have to chime in on that also. i will see what i can dig up though.

Think it looks good, needs the tails and orange front reflectors smoked to add on to it.
Doing those would run around $150

dont get too wild with the black accents its going to make it look like a dalmatian, i would paint stuff white to match as well, and do clear front lights and smoked rear tailights...

:welcome:

Truck looks good and like fatnlow said don't get to crazy with the black :imo:

Ebay has clear corners for cheap and if you search you'll probally be able to find a good deal on some LED tails aswell!

The dash lights should be pretty easy to change out, but I believe the steering wheel controls are a huge pain in the ass and you might be better off buying some new ones off ebay :shrug:

As far as the cheap 3/5 kit I'm not too sure. I remember someone was selling what looked like parts of a 3/5 kit but again cheap is a relative term when it comes to 3/5 kits.
