within the next few months (in no particular order) i plan to install black 68" hilift slidenlock tie downs(should be here next week), iron cross hd steps (once i get a look at some at their local dealer), paint the chrome part of the grill black (if i can get it off without breaking it), try to install a leveling kit myself, underrearseat subs, and heavy duty front and rear bumpers.
i'll post up before/after and during (if applicable) to hopefully help out.

thank y'all.

i'm still new to this whole technology thing so bear with me as i learn.

i seem to have deleted part of my post as i was figuring out how to post pics.

i got the emblems from sfxperformance.com. $60ish dollars for both if i remember correctly. great customer service.

after she was delivered i had the side moldings and emblems removed, the rear emblems removed except for the LTZ, dual GM dvd headrests installed and the Texas Edition emblem added at the dealer.

not a factory Texas Edition. she's my version of a "Texas Edition". i'm not a fan of chrome and that was the only way they came. so i just ordered her the way i wanted.
