BassOverflow's 2015 Silverado LT build

Hey guys, I've been upgrading my truck, but have been slack in documenting it so I hope to do a better job here with photos. I've been a HUGE fan of the new body style when the Silverado was updated to the 14-15 style. Sorry, 2016 guys, but I like the 14-15s Silverados better! Yes, I know looks are subjective. :) anyway...

 

I bought my 2015 Tungsten Metallic LT 4X4 w/ All Star Package and trailer brake on Dec. 30th.

Here she is doing work!

I ended up adding a DiabloSport i2 with a custom Diablew tune. I also added a Corsa Sport catback exhaust. I didn't care for the sound until the AFM was turned off. Now the sound is smooth and quiet... until WOT. Also added the full Kicker sound system.

 

After the tune, I was loving the power and MPGs:

It didn't have sidesteps so I added some iBoards for cheap from Amazon. I really liked them for the price. I don't have a photo, but they looked like these:

I found a deal on some ICI Magnum steps and had them painted to match.

I ended up getting the truck leveled with the RC 2" kit:

Well, the Magnums hung too low, so I had to fix that. Also, I was done with the 17s. :)

I just installed the 5" RC lift, Fuel Beast 20x10 -18 offset, with Toyo Open Country AT Xtreme 305/55s.

So next is fender flares to cover these fatties:

I had to remove the front lower valance as the tires rubbed pretty bad. They also rub the back side too. I'll take a hammer to it and massage it a little to get it to stop.

 

I also got a BAK Revolver bed cover. I'll try to get more photos of what I've done soon.

Looks good. I also love the 14 15 body's style. They did some good work and I will hold on to my 14 as long as I can.

14-15 Is the best looking truck on the road. Love the Silvy and the Sierras. +1 on the 16 not looking as good. The stance on that truck is off the hook!

Thanks! From what I was told by DiabloSport, if I had to load the stock tune, the custom tune would not be traceable so the dealer wouldn't even know about it.

It's going to look really good with flares.

Just ordered them today actually. I'll have my friend paint them to match and will post photos when complete.

Well here you go! I need to get better photos, but I added tow mirrors and Lund fender flares. Since I was painting these to match, I went ahead a painted my grill shell and headlight trim:
