Tinted my fogs yellow today. What a pain in the ass it was because of the shape of them.  You have to wrap the film around the contour of the light, otherwise you can see the clear on the side of the light still.  Lots of work with the heat gun.  Anyways, It's crappy outside so I didn't pull the truck outside for pictures.

We have a body shop here. Sometimes I find stuff that I can make work even if it's broken

I got the LTZ grill installed this morning. This is how I found it:

I had to swap the 3 black painted pieces from my old grille to the new one.  It takes a while to do it with out breaking anything, but I like the outcome.  Now the chrome piece on the lower part of the bumper doesn't look out of place anymore.

In case any one wants the Part number on the grille, it's 84056784

GM Performance Brakes are in. 

They bolt right in with no issues with my drop spindles.  I was worried they might not work with them but no problems.  

The banjo bolts are a fine thread compared to the stock ones, so you have to make sure you use the new ones.  The old copper washers can be a pain to get off though.  

 

Only thing I was disappointed with is you have to take the caliper off to change the pads, unlike most Brembos,  which is going to be a real pain to change them with out scratching up the calipers. 

 

anyways, here's a bunch of pictures:
