Even though I’m lifted and have bigger tires etc it still won’t look right?

I think there may be something different about the front ends of the 1500 vs the 2500 that's more than just the bumper and hood as I've seen a few and they just don't look right. They often dont line up the grille with the bumper either. Unsure what the difference is here but my $0.02 is that if you want a 2500 get a 2500, otherwise keep the front end 1500. It is a great looking truck.

I agree.  I am all for modifications that celebrate and enhance a truck but trying to make it look like another stock version doesn't make a lot of sense, imo.   This reminds me of when I was purchasing my SLE.  My wife asked our salesman if he had any Denali emblems.  I asked her if she wanted to impress others?  She said no, she simply prefers the name.  The truth is, I may know one friend who could possibly identify the trim level of a GM truck without the badging.   I could sport Denali badges (I don't) to make my wife happy and feel I saved $10k!   If you chose and purchased a 1/2 ton, why try to make it look like a 3/4 ton?

I understand what you’re saying; however, I prefer to debadge than rebadge. I don’t particularly care people know if I have an LTZ than an LT. SL? Or Denali. Heck why not throw G63 AMG on that bad boy. I shouldn’t talk my wife’s pathfinder is a GTR.

Lol, I know people do this all day. To each their own. I’ll never post a 2500 in the 1500 forum again. I didn’t know this thread was in the 1500 forums.

Love the sports bar. Wish I could make it work with my bed cover. Very jealous

Did you paint the chrome pieces? Or did you buy replacements?
