What have you done to your K2 today?

Replaced my garbage LED backup bulbs to 800lm bulbs.

Offset on the new bulb is garbage too, barely goes into the socket right. Quality is superior though. I think the brightness more than makes up the bad offset anyway. Oh well, night time test will tell, but it seems to be a lot brighter as I can actually see my garage door lit up when I press my backup flash button.

Top row: Stock bulb | Crappy LED 6000k

Bottom row: Both the new 800lm to compare

Being in the middle makes my OCD a little happier. Mine was above the "Silverado" to the left and was going to leave it on there but took it off. Now I wish I did because I now work at that dealership lol.

My OCD doesn't like it when they are anywhere. I've always asked the dealer to remove them…

Put a Magnaflow muffler on my truck today. 3" in dual 2.5" out part number 12198. Debating if I want to put tips on it or leave it be. I think the V6 sound will take some getting use to.

Did you have to drill holes for the fender flares

No. The bolt holes are for ornamental purposes and the actual mounting holes are clips and existing bolts.

I have also thought about this. I thought about removing the silverado badges, Z71 decals and replacing with these. Of course I want to black out the red Z. I have been looking at the new editions on the website with this. I am starting to like it. It should be offered as an option with any color.

EGR flares are a no drill application. I have them on my truck.

I went and had a tonneau cover put on my truck today. I was thinking how nice it would be if someone invented some sort of rod with a hook on the end, so that if you have luggage for example that gets pushed all the way to the front of the bed. You could use the hook to pull it to the back. That would eliminate having to unroll the cover or climb up inside the truck. Coming up with a rod should be easy. But somehow coming up with a way to attach it to the underside of the bed rail to keep it from rolling around in the bed would be the tricky part.

U might wanna look into one of these. It keeps things in place.

So got my emblems, home an 10 coats of plasti dip on them, good trick to get a good even an clean spray is too put the can of dip in a cup or bucket of hot tap water.

I think they have turned out beautiful.

Here's the size of emblem as well for Yall looking to order them

Yup read that on Mike1220's build thread. That's what he did. Maybe I'll try it next time I plasti dip something. Looking good though!!

I wanted to pass on some information on 2014 GMC/Chevy paint defects. Just got my truck back from being repainted under factory warranty. I have read some post here that says watch who you take it to but I had my done at GMC Dealership with no problems and they also gave me a lifetime warranty on the paint. Who ever you take it too make sure they give you a lifetime warranty or I would suggest taking it to another GMC/Chevy dealership with a good body shop that does give warranty, they aren't hard to find. It doesn't matter what GMC/Chevy dealership you take it to because it is covered under new truck warranty since it is a defect on 2014 trucks, they have to fix it. I had all 4 doors and both rear quarter panels repainted. Good luck on who ever has to deal with this.

I have done almost all modifications for now....waiting on wearing tires out to put 35" on.
