Added a small black decal to the steering wheel bow tie to break up the silver and cover up a weird little dent in it. Swapped out the headlights and added an esky third brake light.

Love these mods. Had to double take on the lift gate light as well. Super clean and should have been an option for sure.

Nice work!

And holding out on the lowered pictures too. But now we can see why. Great stance there!

With an addition to the family on 12/7/16 I needed to add a few things to make the wife happy. I lowered it so she could get our son in and out easier. Believe it or not that was her request. I did the Belltech 2/4 drop with spindles and springs. I replaced the balljoints and axles while it was apart and did the spohn rear adjustable sway bar. I also swapped out the deck with a Kenwood DDX9903S and added a camera under the rear headrest so we could watch Will while driving. Also added an oem USB port

Tires were bad and we were headed on a long trip so I swapped out the wheels off of my bagged Silverado. Needless to say she wouldn’t let me get them back. The tires were a tad small but I loved how low it was. This was also after I lowered it some more. I put the Belltech adjustable shocks in the front and set them 1” lower. In the rear I just took out the stock shocks and relocators and put some shorter shocks. Apparently the shocks were holding it up. It really needed the free travel mod then.

So we sold our bagged golf cart and bought 26s with some of the cash. Did the silver with polished face gm snowflake reps with some 285/35/26 tires. It rubbed like hell but damn it looked good that low. I trimmed and trimmed the front and even shortened the front of the running boards for them to fit but in the end I had to raise it back up an inch. I did some oem lugnuts and some bow tie centercaps to make them more factory looking
