Current plans: 03+ Bumper, 03+ Grill, 03+ Silvy Taillights, 6k HIDs, 6 Hi-Mod, K&N Drop-in Filter, 10" Showoff, 35s on 20x14s or 22x14s

Pulled the rusty hitch off. I realized the bracket for the trailer harness had broken off previously and was tack welded back on. I took it back off, ground off the welds, straightened out the bracket and got it ready to be welded behind the hitch tomorrow, so it is hidden (Thanks to Budd's original idea). I am having it sent in to be sand/media blasted and powder-coated.

I cut the stock muffler off and put on a Dynomax bullet. Trimmed the piping back, so its dumped after the axle.
Has a pretty good tone to it, but not anything like it was on my last truck with 3" collector back with no cats.

Esky Handles are waiting to go on as soon as my new door speakers show up. 03+ DD Bezel on it's way as well.

PC'd hitch bolts and tailgate hinges...

Sounds like a good plan, also I have some better looking GMC 16's I have thought about selling. Just the wheels, buddy of mine already called dibs on the tires.

Rockford Fosgate 6.5" component sets installed in the doors. (Q-Bond is some srs shet for bonding plastic)

Esky handles I got from Bryan are on

Will be putting my double din in next week when I get my USB dongle to fix my headunit, that way I can use my iPod with it...
 
'99 was beat up and HIGH mileage. Honestly the real reason was that I was spending $100+ per week just to drive to work. Right after I sold it I ended up moving less than a mile away from work, so I decided to get another one.
 
Trying to play catch-up now with CGM...

Got the 04+ tails on...

Need to de-badge, just haven't got around to finding a 3M Eraser Wheel yet.

Got the DD installed too. Didn't quite get the AC controls in the right spot. I think I am going to just get a 03+ bucket, if anyone happens to have one let me know.

9.5" FTS lift has just been ordered. No turning back now...

I used my iPod and Navi together today for the first time. I love how it works, just like using an android smartphone, to some extent.
 
:shake:

Not too much options on 14.50 wide tires it seems... Think I am going to be getting 20x12 black 962's that I found for $990 shipped. Thoughts?
