It's funny, I work at a dealership and wanted to do the same thing to my 17 as I love the look of the new 2500 hoods but we had no idea if they would fit. We were hoping to get spare hood in at some point and I'd try it to see if it would fit but now that it does, I'm gonna go ahead and do it.

Thanks for the part numbers OP! Though that hood for me in Canada at my cost is 860$ lol urgh.

 

Where abouts in Canada ? I may be able to get you some pricing if you are in my area

I'm in Winnipeg, all parts are sooooooo much cheaper in the US. Even at my cost, they are always more lol.

I don't need any help with the parts, my boss will get "creative" for me lol.

As it turned out, my price was for everything. When I told our parts guy a while ago that I wanted it, he looked up everything. I also just pre sold my current hood for 900$, so the conversion won't cost anything.

 

The hood must be steel, that's the only way it's so cheap.

Alot of money involved... it's nowhere near what the op paid to do his..

Silverado's need the hood, headlights, grill shell, and bumper.. and who knows if you need Springs, bolts, or anything else

Is there an easy way to add the hood but have the air intake hole plugged ? I want the hood but don't care about its ability to be functional

But if it just so happens to be functional why would you plug it?

Because I have a gasser and I don't have a cold air intake

I'd just leave it instead of going through the trouble of plugging it.. and get an intake. I mean it's kinda dumb to get a functional hood and make it non functional. But whatever do you I guess.

Don't buy any of the intake stuff and leave the hole open..... Though that really seems pointless lol

That looks awesome. Nice clean lines.
