tyler1bo New member May 4, 2013 18 0 0 Arab, AL May 4, 2013 #1 Got a little bored today so I figured I'd start a build thread here too Not many mods as of now, but have plans for much much more. Stock pics.. I am going to try to make this thread much more condensed than my thread from GMFS..hopefully less digging for pics.

tyler1bo New member May 4, 2013 18 0 0 Arab, AL May 4, 2013 #7 Finished product, all pieces finally reassembled. Colormatching really changed the whole look of the truck. Couldn't be any happier with how it turned out.

James Pate New member Mar 27, 2012 3,691 112 0 34 Margate, Fl May 4, 2013 #11 Love your truck Austin, but I think you know that lol. Welcome over
tyler1bo New member May 4, 2013 18 0 0 Arab, AL May 4, 2013 #12 Thanks guys! Really means alot. It's been too long since I've modded. So I'm itching to get the ball rolling again..Anyways! Where was I? Next was the installation of exhaust and mini maxx, which was a more daunting task than I thought it was going to be. DPF weighs a metric TON! Finally got the bedliner put in..was gonna do a spray in Linex, but just ended up with GM lay-in. And here's a link to the exhaust vid (it's not very good, but it's a little simple walkaround with exhaust note). 2013 Chevy 2500HD LML Straight Piped - YouTube

James Pate New member Mar 27, 2012 3,691 112 0 34 Margate, Fl May 4, 2013 #16 Or have the top part of the bumper color matched
slicksierra Feel some type of way Mar 8, 2012 5,464 174 0 32 Central Jersey May 4, 2013 #17 Such a sick color to have matched, Im with James on the top half color matched. You should look into some rear wheel well liners too. I wish they made them for NBS trucks
