Norcal mod is when you cut the inner fender, not the bumper as you're suggesting by your picture. It doesn't look like he's cut the bumper either though.

Dafaq are you talking about you clearly do now know what a norcal mod is. Check the video I posted above and learn something.

Are you high or just menatlly handicapped? We have known for a LONG damn time that 35's will not fit a level without trimming. Period, did you think we are new at this or something?

Its so glaringly obvious the front fender and bumper and airdam were all trimmed just like this ....

If you genuinely did not know it was cut you better check with the shop that installed it, because they sure as **** sliced it up just FYI!

Man, you are really making yourself look like a fool.. This is not my first rodeo, I have been working on trucks most of my life,, particularly of the GM variety..

I am just looking forward to your next comment,, I have a feeling your useless pride is too big for it to be an apology..

He definitely pulled out all the stops there. Except for the video of the older model adding 33s. I think the newer trucks have a little better clearance than the model in the video.

Wheels look just like the ones on my SLT. Damn good knockoff if they aren't genuine.

People better get their attitudes under control in this thread and you know who I mean. Drop the name calling. If this continues there will be vacations handed out

You ain't worth the ban, son.

Check the website of the guy whom the mod is named after.

Bought this truck new in May.. Knew at the time that I loved the new Silverado's, but I couldn't afford a loaded out edition, since I was going to lose out big time on a divorce trade in..

I have been doing my research and knew I wanted a unique truck and the old plane Jane LS truck wasn't what I wanted to keep around..

The build started with tint, mainly because of major headaches when riding in a vehicle without it.. Cost $100

Next was the Rough Country 2" front only leveling kit.. Cost $49

After that, I decided to put a couple eBay stickers on the hood to make a little more "my own".. Cost $10

Decided she needed more chrome, so I went to eBay for door and mirror covers.. Cost $49

Then, I kept my eyes out on local social media for tires and rims.. The 17" steel rims just weren't cutting it at all! I knew some stock 20's would come around because all these rich high school kids around here just have to have them some Fuels or American Forces!

Low and behold, one day I get a message from a guy on Instagram and he tells me he has a set of stock GM wheels and 35 12.50 20 tires that he is going to sell because he got American Force wheels.. When he told me what he would take, I knew I had to jump on it! After some negotiation,, Cost $700

Had the tire pressure monitors that were already in the tires reset for my truck.. Cost $Free

I have a set of Chrome Tow Hooks that my dad took off of a 2013 GMC that I plan to put on, just haven't had time.. They seem to match up..

Total Cost Thus far....... $908,,, But who's counting!?

All I have left to do is get rid of the big ole foglightless bumper.. Plan to replace it with a Warn bumper with Rigid lights and Winch (Not going to be so "Budget" anymore).. It will come in time..

I have done all the labor myself, which has saved a lot of money too..

Thanks for looking!
