Bigboi's 2015 Colorado thread

[BigBoi]

Instead of posting tid bits here and there, I'll make a thread.

2015 Colorado LT ext cab
2wd

Day I brought it home

After tint, valence removal, and 2" AutoSprings leveling kit

And how she sits now after debadging

In the middle of fixing some issues.

Did get the hood flutter fixed. For those wondering, take a 13mm wrench, loosen the two hood latch bolts, lightly tap the latch assembly down about 1/4", then tighten the two bolts back. Readjust your hood bumper stop things to where there's no play, but not too high to where it bends the hood or to where the hood won't latch. Took about 5 tries to get it perfect. It's a fairly common problem among the new Colorados.

Plans ahead;
• adding two SA-12s to the factory HU
• 265/70R17 ATs
• color match the grille

Looks good. Seems like quality with these trucks is mostly hit with some misses. hood flutter is a common one, but seems that it happens on the colorados more then the canyons??? Anyway, i will watch this, i want to get one in a couple years here.

Yea everyone I've seen have the issue has a Colorado. It just wasn't adjusted properly from the factory. Only does it 85mph+. Some people's hoods are flexing and fluttering and they're having to take the truck to the dealer and the dealer injects a hardening foam into all the holes into the space between the two hood panels to strengthen it.

Mine was minor enough to where it just had slack in the latch.

Looks good so far dude.

I'll let homeboy be the first on the scene with all that. I think taking the truck apart and putting it on a new frame voids the warranty lol.

i just want to see some bigger tires. lol

 

[BigBoi]

One day. Truck taxes are due next month and I gotta take a trip to Nashville for 4th. So it'll be after then.

Think he's talking about how they angle up at the back.

 

[GeoffSFAs10]

They curve up on the bottom body line. Very tacoma-ish. I dont really mind them.

 

[BigBoi]

All the lines are kinda jacked. The lower body line that does through the door is at an angle that always makes the truck look like it has rake. My fender measurements are like 1/8" different but it still looks like I'm riding around like a dickhead. Truck would look a million times better without the line.

Looks like you're driving around stopping short. Namesayin
