CUB's 07 Silverado

Nothing else seems to be working/worth using so why not? :shrug: :crazy: I've never welding on anything thin/that would be costly to mess up like that. Only made a duck blind in Ag in high school and other stuff that didn't cosmetically matter too much. Haven't welded since.
I've never shaved a tailgate handle, but I used to have a 1987 Cutlass and I shaved all the door lock and trunk lock holes. I actually used aluminum sheet metal and JB weld. After the JB weld fully cured for a day or two, my lil brother went over it with bondo, and blocked it out more times than I can count. I had the car painted in 1999 and I had the car until 2006 (I only sold it because it was flooded in Katrina and had too much rust). And all those years it never cracked or anything, you could not tell at all where the lock hole used to be. I had body shop guy look surprised as hell when I said how I shaved the locks, one guy thought I was lying, he was swearing it should have cracked using JB weld.
17mpg, but fuck a V6 right. :smirk:17mpg? so jelly i get 12kay:
Truck looks good, always have loved that color
Thanks man. I'm trying to cover this color up one day lol. Wasn't my first choice.
cub, did you roll the pinch weld on the bedside wheel wells? i noticed that my right side, if the rear end flexes just right, that pinch weld cuts the outside of my tire just a little bit
Chyea
No sir, haven't had to do any rolling.
Dafuq.. How often do you reset it? Now that my tailgate is back on and I cleaned my K&N its at an average 17. I wonder how accurate these things are. I think V8's get worse cuz they prob have their foot in it. Witt's 4.8 gets like 13mpg he said

12mpg? I get 18 or so with my 5.3. :shrug:
I'm getting 11.1 on my 6.2 and 14.8 on my 5.3... it sucks but it could be worse I guess.
Cub you're truck would look TITS in a matte blue wrap imo.

:cheeky: I just did my first wrap on a 89 RCSB dually. Hasn't really have me that much problems so far. I think my truck will be easy. No body lines or molding. Most of the panels are flat. We'll see
