Chevy Progress

Permanent Linkby SeattleSilverado on Feb 23 2012, 3:32pm

Hello Everyone,

So this is my first attempt to track the progress on my new Chevy Silverado. I am completely new in the realm of mechanics and I am taking this step by step doing it all myself. Doing is the only way to learn right?

So far I have only changed the aesthetic looks on my truck such as new front billet grill emblem (black), debadged rear emblem, will be removing z71 stickers today and replacing, replaced stock rims with 18" xd addicts. Sounds easy enough but learning how to change a tire with tire pressure sensors was a bit of a pain for me. So far everything has gone well. I am up for any recommendations as to what I should do to my truck. This is becoming my hobby and I have the money to dump into it. In the near future I will be installing a cat-back exhaust system (brand unknown) and also a CAI (brand unknown). I am still unsure whether or not I will be installing a leveling kit but if I do i will be purchasing a set of Nitto Trail Grappler 33's. Pictures to come tonight.

This is my truck after a new billet grill bowtie emblem and my new wheels transferred to my stock tires. Larger tires will come once these are worn down.

Next mod will be plasti-dipping my front/rear bumper and grill, as well as removing my z71 stickers for when i recieve my replacement.
