Pulled the grilled. Cleaned and lightly sanded the chrome inserts to create better adhesion. Used 320 grit finishing paper. 4 coats of Plasti dip, 4 coats of Rust-Oleum matte protectant for durability.

I have a 2015 ltz, just wanted to mute the chrome just a bit.f8ed13188364824338bb2ba6e23f45a2.jpg

Thought this pic turned out nice and shows off the level nice. 2.25 Readylift with their upper control arms and Readylift 1.5 Add-A-Leaf. 275/60/20 Nitto Terra Grapplers.1141766ed5631db64941ab7cbe580a8b.jpg

That looks fantastic!

I am curious about the add-a-leaf and the ride difference with a topper. My truck will have a permanent topper in a month or two. I’m looking for an extra inch of lift in the back and I heard add-a-leaf makes the ride stiffer. How does the truck ride with the add-a-leaf and topper? How does it compare to stock with an empty bed?

I don't know whether it's the new tires or the Add-A-Leafs but it actually rides better than it did before. The reason I added them is I'm never taking the topper off as I have a nice trailer for large stuff and I didn't want ass end sitting lower than the front over time. I'm very happy with the results.

Great looking truck! I'm a huge fan of all terrains, I wish I could have found one when I was in the market.

This is my 2018 Silverado LT Crew Cab Short Bed. My goal for this truck is to fix it up and utilize it for camping and hunting BUT keep it simple. Something that I have always enjoyed with my trucks is keeping them some what stock looking while making people know that it is not stock. For me low key is the best, with some customization to keep it different from other trucks. 

1) USA Flag decal on the rear windshield (Local shop installed it)
2) Tint to match the factory (ceramic to keep that CA heat out) 
3) Debadge the truck from all insignia as well as remove the 4X4

4) Added some AUX switches that make it look factory (bought them from Ebay) 
5) 4 off roading LED light pods on some hood mounts

Great looking rig!  Congrats.  This was what I really wanted originally, found one but dealer added 3.5” lift Fuel wheels and inflated the price by a ridiculous amount.  I decided to go with a 2018 Sierra Denali Ultimate 6.2...couldn’t be happier ;  but still love these all terrains .

Very classy looking rig.  Almost a spitting image of my Denali.  You’re gonna love the white frost tri coat color, stays clean and looks beautiful when in the sun.  I had the factory gmc splash guards installed front & back, tinted front windows, Xpel paint protection film front bumper, partial hood, fenders.  Also did the Rev hard tri folding tonneau cover.  That’s it for now.  Really happy with truck so far.  Was seriously considering an AT4 2019 but incentives no where near as generous as they were on 2018’s.    Enjoy your truck ?

    • The engine was done as part of the 6.2 recall?   You'd have to see if your VIN also has the 6.2 engine special coverage on it.  Coverage number is N252494003.  If you have this, your engine is covered under this and NOT the GM replacement part engine warranty which is 3yr/100k from the date of install.  The 3yr/100k mi warranty is in effect for non warranty purchases.     This is not any different if it was replaced under warranty without a recall or special coverage.  So if you had a 5.3 and it popped at 3 years in at 50,000mi during the 5yr/60k powertrain, the replacement engine would not get the 3yr/100k, and instead gets the remainder of the 5yr/60k as coverage.     So N252494003 gives 10 years or 150,000mi of coverage, which ever comes first, starting at the vehicle in service date.  So if your in service date is 01/01/2022, N252494003 gives you special coverage of the engine until 01/01/2032 or 150,000mi, whichever comes first.  So if your start date was 01/01/2022, you'd have left 5 years and 4 months (lets round to august 1st), or 62,000mi left of coverage.   So you need to know your in service date to know how much coverage is left.  
    • Okiee dokie there bud, way to take things to the extreme.   I guess you missed the whole point and take things way to serious. I installed different EV6 style injectors that just so happen to be larger in my car running the same LQ4 engine and with a better spray pattern than the stock style injectors and I noticed no difference in the idle quality. Kinda was my round about way of saying that even if you put the same size but better style injectors in your truck, you will likely see the same thing.    I'm sure you're great to have conversations with in person if that's how you act through a keyboard. One little things sets you off and now I guess my dick is all up in your face.
    • I can't believe that could possibly be the case. It should be 36mo/100k miles from installation. Then again, it also seems like since a dealership installed it, it'd all be in the system and you wouldn't need to worry about registering, either. Shows you what I know. 😄 Hope this one outlives the warranty!
    • I haven't seen inventory recovery from COVID.    In the few random times I 'build my own' truck or SUV, no one has the exact one I want.   GM has been working to lower incentives too for a long time.    A $500 incentive isn't getting me off the couch to go truck shopping.
