I had the dealer when I bought the truck switch them out. Not sure what brand they are but I really like them.

Can you take a straight on side shot. Been thinking about removing the 4x4. Maybe the tail gate. Thanks.

I’ve had the truck one week today.  
 

Base model duramax crew cab 4wd SB.

 

So far I’ve done:

 

Debadge, other than GMC on rear (replaced with vinyl) and front of course

 

Chrome delete (Vinyl Wrap)

 

Tint: 15% on sides & rear, 45% on windshield).  

 

Smoked mirror lights, side markers, and third brake light 
 

Wheels and level go on next week - 20” fuel rebels wrapped in nittos.  
 

Handles and side / bumper steps color-matched within 2 weeks. 

 

More pics to come soon.

This looks really good.  For the chrome delete, how is the color match on the white vinyl? It is hard to tell from the pictures and lighting.  Your truck color is Summit White?

 

Can you share the brand/color used?

It looks better in person, not sure why the pics look like they were taken with a potato.  The match is very close, but just like my last truck (that had factory painted bumpers), it depends on angle and lighting.  I have some friends that are very critical of everything.  They didn’t see the truck until the vinyl and they didn’t notice it wasn’t factory.  Not sure on what color white he used but it’s 3m vinyl.

Has anyone color-matched the tow mirrors yet?  I’m undecided, but I think they would set it off.  Saw a ‘20 Silverado today with them in white, looked good.

That upgrade is high on my list along with color matching the chrome grill bar and hood vent. Thanks for the info.

      87 down as low as $5.14 here... winning!

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Progress... sort of.   Intake is disassembled, spider is out, fuel lines removed. Used a torch on the stripped screw with the lower intake off, much easier when I've got the intake sitting on my workbench, I made it talk. Walked right out with a pair of vice grips once it was nice and toasty hot.   New parts are piling up on my service cart waiting to be installed. Distributor, temperature sensor, new gaskets, fuel line kit, themostat, water neck.   My new pickle is I don't want to spend $600 on a replacement spider. I'm not sure IT is bad. I'm probably splitting hairs. Or it's $300 to send mine away and another 3 weeks of the truck just sitting. I have half a mind to assemble everything with the old spider to see if I can get away with just replacing the fuel pressure regulator to be safe. The obvious issue was the gushing high pressure fuel line which will be replaced. Getting to the spider really isn't that hard, and now I know what I'm doing , swapping it would be a breeze should it absolutely need one. Stupid, or smart?   The part that gives me pause is replacing the distributor. Well, it's already out. And I didn't mark it, whoopsie! Engine was at TDC when I removed it, I know that, so upon correct reinstall the metal tip on the rotor should point to the TDC mark on the distributor because that's where it was pointing on the old distributor. Worst case I'm a tooth off and have to re-stab it.   But then, what? I assume the truck will start. It doesn't appear the timing can be set. Here's the problem: These distributors can't be rotated but a degree or two, by design. What I read is Cam ****** needs to be -2 to +2 degrees, ideally at 0 (and checked/set above 1000 rpm). There should be enough wiggle to get that properly set, but checking the reported value is another potential issue. My Actron 9185 scanner says it supports enhanced GM PIDs and Cam ****** is one of them but it's unclear that I'll be able to correctly see it over OBD 1.5. I can see why people end up junking these things with life left in them. They're an absolute nightmare with tweener-year diagnostics/electronics and unobtanium parts.   Fingers crossed it starts and idles nicely. There can be hope, right? I'ma buy a lottery ticket the same day just in case.   Next steps..DO IT. I have not installed an intake before so I've been reading and watching a lot. Some say NO RTV except on china walls, some say DO RTV on water ports but not fuel/air intake. 1/4 or 3/8 bead on China walls? I think my strategy will be, obviously, RTV china walls with overlap on the gasket corners. Chapstick-style RTV the water ports. Leave intake ports dry. The only set of intake gaskets I could find locally are Edelbrock performance gaskets (uh...for an asthmatic 190hp V6? LOL) so we'll see how they do.   #NoToolLeftBehind. It took an hour, but my recovery mission for my deep 10mm socket was successful. It had rolled down the bellhousing and wedged itself between what I think are the fuel lines? I couldn't see it at all, but with a junk antenna I had laying around, I blindly went poking/sweeping for it, heard it clink, raised the truck, and caught a sliver glimpse of chrome with a flashlight way up there in Narnia. I had pushed it farther along the lines holding it captive, but within access of severely improvised tools, poking and cursing at it to finally knock it free to where I could get a fingertip on it to bring it home.    Not much to see.
