Badass. How hard was it popping off the bumper piece?


First one took a little bit of trying to figure out where all of the mounting points were. 3 allen screws on the top and then two under the step pad itself. Then disconnect the sensor thats behind the step . The whole piece is secured in the hole using platic clips so you have to pry those out to.Hard to explain without pictures.

I couldnt figure out another way to get to the bolts though, maybe removing the bumper would work to.

First paint correction and seal on the AT4 now that winter is over. This blue looks even better after a clay/polish/seal.

Very nice! Can you see the texture through the vinyl?

Yes slightly. I used VViViD vinyl but I know 3M 1080 is a little thicker but harder to work with but it might hide it better.

Didn’t like the plastic looking trim pieces above and below the sliding back glass so I wrapped them in gloss black vinyl this morning.

How hard was this to do and what tools did you use? I’m  Looking to do the same thing, only in carbon fiber.  Still haven’t decided if I want to use 3M or Vvivid.

You need a sharp knife, heat gun, rubbing alcohol and a squeegee with a felt pad on it so it doesn’t scratch the vinyl.

Look up CKwraps on you tube. He’s pretty good about explaining the process.

Not today exactly, but was able to add this Z71 Grille Emblem

How difficult was this?  Online it says you have to remove the grill to install.

No. You do not have to take the grille off.

It's a 3 piece set. 

Just make DAM sure you have them pressed together good.

1 peice goes behind the grille. The other 2 front pieces, go ahead and press them together.

Then while holding the back piece behind the grille, snap the front piece( 2 pieces already snapped together) in place thru the back peice.

Thank you sir!  I am seeing them from as high as $70-80 through dealers and around $50-60 on Ebay.  What did you pay?

$68

Thru Ebay from Atlanata, Ga.

Was same day shipping and packages very well. 

So, the emblem should feel very tight and snug when done..

Again, just go ahead and snap the front 2 pieces together, them with your weak hand, hold the back piece behind the grille, then with strong hand press the combined 2 front pieces thru the back piece. Press like hell 2!

Gimme a PM if you need to, when you get it.

      Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
