What have you done to your K2 today?

Nope, purchased my own, went to the dealership and had the gm paint shop do it. Perfect match.

 

I believe all said and done $145 out the door and on my truck.

Thanks.

 

I didn't think it was an option to have GM build the truck that way using an order from. Thanks for clearing that up, I thought I missed that while looking into ordering a new truck.

 

It would be nice if more trucks came colormatched from GM. I did notithe 2016's are available with that option. I am a huge fan of the colored front end and can't stand the chrome.

 

Looks good, it's only off a little from matching the OEM paint perfectly. Front bumper and the grille surround are a little yellowish against the factory paint in that picture.

I would definitely take it back to whatever body shop you used and have it redone, that would bug the heck out of me.

Looks good, whatever body shop you used did a good job. It's only off a little from matching the OEM paint perfectly. Front bumper looks good but the grille surround is a little off looking at the picture.

It must be whatever it is you're viewing it on that's off, your eyeball, or perspective, or picture. It's also funny how you're editing as I am typing......

 

I have serious OCD and if it didn't match it would bother me to no end. The body shop I used is the GM body shop for this region. They use they exact paint according to the paint codes via GM. For this reason, they don't like to paint individual pieces because they have to mix large quantities. So when it's time for Onyx Black, that's when I get my parts in...lol...I have a few more parts going in soon.

 

BTW, to prove my point....my truck is a Denali....the bumper comes from the factory as Onyx Black....

Just picked up my FiberWerx 3" fiberglass fenders from Fedex Ground! Unboxing pictures coming in the next couple hours.

Despite FedEx being absolute trash in my area the fenders arrive without damage. Plus it also helped the box they were shipped in was huge!

I think you may be a little confused as to what I was talking about in my post when I commented about paint.....I was commenting on the white GMC, not your black truck you posted after my post about the white one.

 

My eyes are fine, it's just the grille surround and bumper appear yellowish against the factory paint on the three different devices I viewed the posted picture on. Not trying to offend the owner, just pointing that out. It looks much better than it would if it were left chrome or flat black though.

 

Note to self : don't edit a post to correct spelling, or to add another sentence after rereading a members post after looking closely at the picture.......

 

The black truck YOU posted looks good, my black 2010 came with the painted front end when GM offered that "Appearance Package".

I would suggest getting 3M protection film applied if you can, it will save your bumper paint. I didn't have it done and it now looks like shit! After this winter I am having the bumper repainted and the 3M applied.

Got mine from Amazon

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TA7UUM2?keywords=23285090&qid=1451255271&ref_=sr_1_1&sr=8-1

Thanks for the link. I received it yesterday and finally got to install it tonight. I like it a lot and very easy to install.

Tonight I did a couple things to improve command central!! I added the Driver assist handle and installed a pro clip phone mount with an additional dc outlet with a apple power cord which I ran behind the screen up to the mount. All cords are hidden out of sight besides the very end that plugs into the phone.

 

Very happy with how both mods turned out.

No offense taken, was confusing since you quoted my post.....and I am with you on getting the bumper painted again this spring....lots of gravel on the highways lately, and idiot drivers who can't seem to stay between the painted lines....I would do XPEL rather than 3m.....it's on the list for this coming year....have xpel on the hood and lights and it's pretty damn tough....

New grill setup

 

[Hozer]

Reinstalled the passenger side rear seat after finishing the mount for my JL Audio Cleansweep and then tethered my under seat sub box in so that it doesn't move around and kill someone. Then I took my 7 1/2 year old son for a ride and taught him what an automotive stereo should sound like. His ears are still ringing.

Fat fingered, and shot from the hip.

Yep its one of the first mods i did. Helps keep the leather from getting all dicked up from continuous sliding across the seat. It kills me that this isnt standard on all trims. I saw a new basic ram work truck that had one stock. Smh. Its just another one of thise things gm does to cut corners on production costs. Kind of like how the k2s dont have lights under the hoods anymore Edited January 2, 2016 by dbcooper

Cleaned the bed and undercarriage and the carpet. Carpet mats were definitely not made for hunting trips...
