Finally washed mine today. Weather has been crazy and getting an additional pollen season. Was covered in pollen before I could even get it dry. Wasn't really feeling up to washing it since I got in a little fender bender a couple weeks ago, but wanted to see how bad the damage really was. 2 lanes turning left and the girl in the lane to the left of me decided to go straight instead of left, she was in the left turn only lane. T-boned my left rear, then lied to the officer and said I turned down into her. Now it's a he said, she said and we both get dinged on our insurance...d84c0ff0cbdeea4a8c2a8a3ffae4f9de.jpg45dc86ad4a8cbf111c3b142dc72cb442.jpg

I don’t understand how people can suck at driving then lie about it.

Rush hour traffic in Atlanta getting on the freeway, any witness was gone 5 seconds later. Damage is on the front of her car and the side of mine, she says I turned into her. Physically no way that can happen, can only hope the adjuster can prove it. Trying to get traffic cam footage or statement from fire rescue unit as to the location of the vehicles before they had us move out of traffic, but officer hasn't called me back. Adjuster said all that has to go through the officer, so I doubt it'll get anywhere.

Here’s the latest pics of my 2017 Silverado.  Here is a list of the aftermarket mods I put on:

-K&N CAI, Diablo Predator 2, Dual Magna-flo exhaust, 4” Ready Lift lift kit, OR pocket flare fender, tow mirrors, 20 x 12 Helo wheels with 33’s.

Thinking of maybe putting mud flaps to protect the paint. Any idea? I am limited in room due to some rubbing if I put anything in the well.

I just put on Weathertech mud flaps a month ago, i really like them, and very simply to install...I even used a little clear 3m vinyl around the edges to protect the paint...the biggest pain was working around the rear tire...that took more time than that actual install...I don't have clearance issues like you might, but they don't take up too much room...might be able to work?  I would say that for you, I would recommend removing your rear tires for install (regardless which ones you go with).

 

I only go off roading pretty much when i go hunting, so limited...but if my truck was used for heavier off roading (or larger tires like you) I would probably opt for these...they were recommended to me on this site, I just don't off road enough to justify, but they look SOLID!

So I already have Chevy’s splash guards installed on my truck. I think those fender flares are nice but I would say they won’t fit on mine due to the splash guards and how they’re shaped/Installed. dc4c41a1c065fc2fb4d9faf9e5608a7c.jpg

I figured as much. I’m sure there could be some engineering to installed the flares then the splash guards but not looking to do that..... at least not right now.

I can't tell 100% by the pic...but if you have the painted factory mud guards...I bet you could sell them here and get the more aggressive flaps if that is something you would want...again, not knowing how much you off road, it might not be worth it...as much as i do, the weathertechs have made a huge improvement for me...and i would imagine the factory ones are comparable coverage as the weathertechs...

How much did the black bumper cost you? if you don’t mind me asking.

    • 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.
