Some better pictures.

 

Looks really good. Any thought on a red outline around the bowtie to make it stand out? would go with the red in the Z71 badge.

Thank you. That's just it I wanted the bowtie to blend in. I may end up changing the bowtie to break up the color. I'm always doing something to the truck.

Plasti-diped bumpers and painted grille surround. Any ideas on how to darken the lights nicely either smoke them some how or disassemble and paint the chrome pieces black. I have been looking for pictures but haven't found any.

Is this a work truck style Silverado? If so, did you have the all black front end originally and what did you do to white out the front end? I have same truck, (work truck) with all black front end....I am thinking about going to the GM white grille with black mesh, but that leaves me with black front bumper and black headlight borders. Let me know, thanks! Looks killer!!

Joshua,

 

My truck is just a standard work truck, like the all black one on the right.

 

I just used plasti dip to paint the grill, headlights, and bumpers. My suggestion is to take everything off, so you can get a coat of dip on it.

Awesome man, I really dig it, I can't find to many people with the work truck. I go with the work truck for the black bumpers and the rubber floor, other than that it's a fully loaded work truck with convenience package. Couple more questions if ya don't mind. Is yours 2wd? Do you have floor mats in it and is your floor rubber? If so what kind and how do you get them to stay put? What color is your interior? I wanna swap mine out from light grey to black

My company provided to me, most basic truck you can get.

 

I have the rubber floor but I purchased the rubber floor mats. I removed the knobs on the other side with a dremel. They still slide around a litte bit, but it looks a whole lot better now.

 

My truck is 2wd but I have leveled it and added factory wheels. Do you have any more pictures of the truck? I really like the black wheels.

 

My truck is light gray inside with the black floor. I also added the center console. I love the thing.

Gotchya ya mine is leveled as well with just some aftermarket matte black wheels with stock tires. Mine is 4wd. I got the GM rubber WEATHERTECH mats but they slide everywhere really bad. I bought the 2 posts that stick out of the floor on other models that the floor mat snaps into, obviously our trucks don't come with those but I want to try and figure out a way to put those posts in my floor. Let's see I got limo tint all the way around with strip across top of windshield. I just put on the GM black bowtie emblems front and rear. I got black splash guards. I want to put tow mirrors on it, tow hooks, maybe get the color matched grille gm offers, and black out the "silverado" lettering. The thing I really wanna do is swap to black cloth interior. Yours didn't come with a center console? How hard was it to put in? I want to switch mine as well to black. I'll try and post some pics, I don't like my wheels

Forgot the NFAB textured black nerf steps also. I wanna black out the tail light covers

My Z71 is finally color matched.

Killer looking ride bro 100%!! I went with the high country just to get the black bumpers to match, and wish the grill, and headlight surrounds were black too. Thinking about replacing the big square steps for the round black ones, I use my truck daily for work, and am in and out at least 20x a day and think I would wear out the power steps very fast. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated :)af3b3810cd0b666ca7b390be284f1fc9.jpg

What are the specs on your wheel and tire set up?
