Want To Make My 04 Look A Little More Agressive !

[Z_71_steve]

hey guys... kinda like the title says... im looking for ways to make my 04 z71 look more agressive withought putting a 6" lift and 35's... i already have a grill guad... but my truck just looks so... i duno STOCK... and it drives me nuts... whats a way to make my truck stand out??

 

 

i'm thinkin a 3" body lift with some 285's... my only worry is that i'm gonna go through more gas with the bigger tires...

 

that and i need an exhaust... give me your first hand experience... what sounds mean withought drivin the neighbors nuts?

 

also i wanna put a couple 6" offroad lights on my grillguard... how do you guys think that'll look?

 

 

 

gimme some opinoins... let me know what you guys think?

 

thanks... steve

Bigger rims and tires, maybe some BF's. Maybe a bug shield, window visors and a windshield banner. Once you get the rims and tires get some bushwackers.

put an '06 hood on it.

More agressive tires would do the trick. I went with the Mickey Thompson MTZ in a 265, and I really like the way they changed the look of the truck, and I don't have to worry about any kinda rubbing issues.

Along with the lift, some BFG AT's would look awesome.

thanks for your thoughts guys... a 3" body lift would put my truck at the 2500 level correct? and i like the idea about the bfg's ... i've wanted some for so long ... i was close to getting them this spring but i've spent like 800$ for a new water pump.. high output alternator and a new optima red top battery... i've depleted my truck money.. but the 3" lift kit runs pretty cheap correct?

A 3" BL would usually run under $350 if you install it yourself, which could be done in a weekend with someone to help out. You will need to either cut the valance, or make some custom brackets since you have the brush guard on there, and it won't be lifted with the body.

yeah i'm thinkin that if i can just install the bl.. then see if theres a way to put the brush guard back on after i fab up some brackets

I always felt, Wide tires in the back (285's), Narrower in the front (195's, 200's 225"s). gave an agressive look.

Flames on the fenders leading up to the hood help.

Your going in the right direction with the exhaust sound.

 

The motor needs a better sound at idle....Mechanical Lifters..Sounds like shakin' a bunch of safety pins on a wire coat hanger....with a little bit of cam lope, you can get the evil, baruumpp! baruumpp! baruumpp! baruumpp!..

Okay?

 

 

 

Once, any one sees you approach there is no............

 

Well, you will have to make room for you girlfriend...

I would do a 3" Fabtec and some very aggressive tires.

Change the front end.. the headlights from the 04-07 always looked kinda "whimpy" and "Happy/Gay" to me...

Ya have to have some rumble to your exhaust...definately put some offroad lights on your BG...some 285 somethins????? Make it your own Steve.. you got a good start!

[asilverblazer]

Body lift, mud tires, and off road lights on the grille gaurd. Tint the windows. No visors, and no bug shields, although I have one I don't like how they look.
