  1. Why do GM aluminum alloy rims all eventually go to s***? 2015 Sierra, rims saw two winters before I bought snows on steel wheels... I mean, I'm guessing it's from salt getting under the clear coat, but why? Been an issue forever, Dad's 04 Silvy did the same and now the whole rim looks like hell.
  2. I bought snow tires for my 2015 last year, what a difference. But my options were do it right and suck it up and buy snows and rims, or take off the crappy Bridgestone Duellers that came on the truck, that still have half their life left, and put on Defenders instead. I still want the Defenders once the Duellers are shot, especially since the Duellers will break lose pulling away on from a red light on wet pavement.... But after a winter on snow tires, I get it, there really is a difference. I always had weight in the 2wd '98 I drove before, but never have in my 4wd.
  3. Aeroskin here as well, breaks the silver hood up from the chrome grille well. Would 100% go with a flush mount bug deflector, looks way better.
  4. Same rattle in my 2015 Sierra too, thought it sounded like a loose washer somewhere so the video confirms that. Now I know where to look!
  5. No I don't, I have BPS G7 LEDs in the headlights, have had them for a couple years and they aren't bad, but the fogs will help them out a lot. The lights match well, thought I had a picture with the headlights on but I'll have to grab one.
  6. Took the snows off and installed my XB LEDs while I had the fronts off to give me some more room to get under the bumper. Can't believe the difference. Had a license plate bulb out too so I put a pair of Zevos in there.
  7. Thanks for checking. Looks like our best deal up here will be Amazon! Which is a surprisingly good price anyway.
  8. Type G Morimoto XB LED Fogs are $166 CDN on Amazon.ca with free shipping. I'll be surprised of this group buy beats that by the time we factor the exchange rate. Type G are the ones for GMC. https://www.amazon.ca/Morimoto-Type-LED-Projector-Light/dp/B00XA3CE58/ref=sr_1_4?s=automotive&ie=UTF8&qid=1489715601&sr=1-4 *edited to change URL to desktop site and not mobile
  9. I don't suppose that the free shipping includes Canada does it?
  10. The place I bought my MX4 from had an undercover model (think it was a flex) there as well, wasn't this one because the MX4 was the only one with the universal tailgate seal. Couple things the sales rep mentioned were the undercover's rails don't sit on the truck bed rails at all, so in theory the cover could be pushed down into the bed with enough force - probably unlikely though. The bigger problem to me was that when folded all the way open, the prop rods hold it straight up and down, rather than leaning it against the cab - so it becomes a sail. Dealer said the owner manual for the undercover states speed limits for driving with the cover vertical as well - might have been in the 50-60mph range but I don't remember for sure. At the end of the day they are almost identical and made by Truck Hero (parent company) anyway... And the Flex and MX4 were the same price.
  11. Picked up and installed my MX4 today, looks good so far but I left the cab bumpers and the bulkhead weather stripping off until I can install in warmer weather. BAK has a deal on now till March 17 - you can get a $50 rebate (whoopdy doo) or a Husky Gearbox for free, which is $165 for a crew cab. Just an fyi. Edit: Only applies to MX4 or Revolver X2, and has to be bought from a BAK dealer, not BAK themselves.
  12. Bought my 2015 QuickSilver SLE Kodiak Edition in Dec 2015, and honestly haven't taken any good photos of it! Need to change that. I honestly didn't like the idea of a silver truck at first, and actually wanted the metallic blue, but the dealer with the Quicksilver truck threw a way better price my way than the one with the blue one, and it grew on me... simple, clean looking truck. Pictures... Have one as it sat on the dealer lot, had mud flaps, aeroskin hood protector and a Line-X added before I brought it home. Changed the stock halogens out for BPS G7 LED. Ordered a Bakflip MX4 for it today as well. Anyone have bed rails on their silver truck? Toying with the idea but not sure how it'll look. After scrolling through this thread I can see why people ditch the factory rubber straight away... Think I'll wear mine out first though.
  13. I think you're right on that with the flare being there for non-projectors. They leave a fairly substantial 'T' shaped shadow on the outer lenses of our trucks. Most of the time I'm happy with them, it's just those dark rainy nights that really suck up your light output that I'm not totally satisfied with.
  14. anyone else tried this or any updates? I've put the G7 bulbs in my 15 Sierra SLE as well and while they are way better than stock, I'm still not completely happy with them on a dark, rainy night as far as distance and brightness goes. I haven't changed my fog lights from stock though either - thinking XB LED for those if I change them.
