I swore i'd never sell my truck but it's getting old and having it's little problems here and there.. So i've been searching for some good NNBS Denalis. I had a friend of my dad's that was supposed to sell one to us but that didn't happen. This is most likely the truck i'll get, haven't gotten it yet but i've been driving it the past few days and love it. It is...

2009 Steel gray Sierra Denali 1500 6.2 AWD
Black interior
Heat/cooled seats
No nav
No DVD
130k miles

It has some damage right now which will be fixed for free before i get it. I don't have any really good pics of it at the moment, But it has two dents in the driver fender, needs a new front bumper from driver side damage (snagged bumper), will have new a/c controls because of peeling, and a new seat bottom because of a tear starting.

Plans for now (in order)

Debadge tailgate
LED interior, switchbacks and 5k HID's, LED license plate lights
Cleared headlights
2.5" level
either put toyos on stockers or methods and toyos on, give me some feedback
Get my touchscreen in there
45% windshield and 15% everywhere else
Colormatched GMC logo




Not sure on demolding or not...


In the future i will do exhaust and tune. other than that this truck will be just a clean stockish DD

Pics

































Give me ideas
 
:bawss:

Definitely do the methods and toyos, only thing I don't like is the woodgrain. Never been a fan of wood in any color it all just looks cheap to me. I'd paint it black or color match it to the trucks color.

I personally like the wood grain but black burl wood might be nice. I was considering de-molding as well but when I picked up extra moldings that I bought off craigslist I looked at his truck and it just looks off. If you did de-mold I would at least leave the Denali badges. BTW if you want to trade Grilles I have a thread in the wanted/for sale section I'd be happy to trade you :thumbsup:

What exhaust are you planning on?

As for the wheels I would stick with whatever gives you the poke you want.

I've always liked your NBS, very clean truck so I'm excited to see where you take this one.
 
thats a sick truck DFW 6.2, do wish it was white like the other one you where looking at but this was looks great !!!! and methods would look sweet IMO
 
I like the woodgrain compared to the blackburl wood. Only thing else I would consider for that is suede or vinyl wrap maybe black or stainless
 
Deff DEMOLD, but I can't wait to see wat else u do to give me ideas for mine


Sent from my fuckin iPad
 
4/6 it imfo...


:cheeky: nah definitely do the methods though, I would probably leave the moldings and remove everything else
Worst case scenario, you decide you dont want them, pull them later :shrug:
 
I can't believe you can get a denali with the basic radio? Truck looks good, but DNW faggot crew cab midget bed. DFW 6.2 though!
 
Thanks guys. If I haul stuff I always use a trailer and for me to drive in my ex cab the seat back sat on the front of the back seat... Lol no space. I wanted one with no dvd and basic radio to cut the price some since I will keep my pioneer. I will leave moldings for now. May eventually change the wood but IMO it isn't too bad. It's a good bit darker than the normal ltz/slt wood. Very first thing I do will be change oil and filter.... Good to start knowing what's in there. Will take some more pics today
 
I wish mine had the darker wood in it I've been wanting to wrap mine in something that will be close to the brushed aluminum that I have
 
Thanks guys. Truck went in today to be all fixed, I should be in it Friday. My dad did some hard core creeping and found the original owner and found out it has been really well taken care of, just had every fluid throughout the whole truck changed and much more only 13000 miles ago
