Very nice! I took all the emblems off of mine this week. I'm debating on what I want to go back on, if anything. I think I'll keep everything off the tailgate. I went ahead and ordered 6.2 badges in black to replace my chrome, but I'm thinking about moving 6.2 altogether as it doesn't really look like it belongs on the hood. Maybe I'll put those where the Z71 used to be? Decisions, decisions...

I do like the "debadged" look on the fenders of the trucks.  Its a very clean look.

Its gloss black, I did the replica gloss black 20s and gloss black exhaust tips.

Is that a wrap or is that the plastic cover?  I just posted about the covers I found on here.

 

If the grille is the plastic cover, what ya think???

Neither,  its a gm gloss black grill center i bought on Facebook Market place. I have a color matched one too. I think the black breaks it up but doesn't look out of place like the whole black front-end.

I agree, I think the black just makes the truck front end more aggressive.  

 

Would you wrap it, or get the cover?   Do you like the gloss black with the grille???

I'd buy the cover, I have it on my rear bumper center where I dented it. The eCOOLogical stuff is really nice and fits great..! 

 

Its a toss up between the gloss black or the painted I had before with the t-rex insert. Here is a pic of before, I removed the license plate too.

In that pic it has the color matched center, the t-rex insert is the billet silver bars that fit on the fiins. Heres the black grill with the t-rex insert. Trying to get away from anything shiny like silver or chrome so I pulled it off.

I love this bumper!!  This is not my truck, just a similar model.  I have a 2020 Silverado Black Widow with Whipple blower and is now a monster 9.3L Big Block @ 800bhp plus even more torque to the mid 800's.  My truck is lifted 7" from stock. This truck has now been featured in several different commercials but I don't watch much tv these days.  As you can see, the winch mount is great and the manual controls are accessible via the two front pockets.  Plenty of space for an air ride and train horn, 7gal compressor. Lights can be mounted to replace the OEM lights which are not compatible.  Lots of options.  I now refer to this truck as "Dangerous" vs something like "bad ass".  When I finally got to drive it, it nearly cause 3 accidents on the 5 mile ride home. Two nearly drove off the road while another one was mesmerized at a stop light he must have forgot he was in a turn lane proceeded straight into oncoming traffic.  Haven't used the horn but I'm sure there are plenty of dummies on the road.  I also have a police scanner and CB with a loud PA system.  The bed has Bed Rug with an electric tonneau hard cover.  Had it for 5 weeks now, the first 4 were different product advertising like ceramic coating (worth it).  Blow dirt off or use a terry, it still looks like it's ready for the showroom for at least 3 years.  There is also the rear bumper too.  Guaranteed to strain necks!!

      upgrading speakers on 2026 std cab WT...

      By bwiese · Posted

      I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose

      Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)

      Correct way to service 2024 l8t allison trans?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
