I thought I would start a build thread on my 04 Silverado, progress will be slow for a while, just figured I would start my thread now. Also my cam date is setup dd/mm/yyyy

Plans
-Suspension, wheels, tires and other things are :secret: unless you are one of a chosen few I have consulted with, for now it has full Rough Country Level
-BB tune
-full color match, mirrors, handles, top bumper cap
-Line-X
-Stereo, kind of done
-OEM plus style interior would be nice aswell, keep tan but do suede door inserts and headliner and LEDs everywhere
-LED swapped 3/4 ton gas cluster, have the cluster just need to finish it
-LEDs instead of regular bulbs outside, factory colors for there location, 35W 5500K HID highs and lows, 3000K fogs
-Retint, 20% on the fronts and rears, maybe 50% on windsheild
-clear headlights and bumper lights-DONE
-convert DRL to turn singal/running light-DONE
-06 hood/grille swap
-Forgot did dat tree mod to tailgate in the summer so there are plans for the gate :secret:

When I got it 11-24-10 and the day after. Had tint and billet bowtie when I got it
It was icy so it stayed at work that night

Painted my lower valance black so now all of the grey plastic is finally gone, also stole an idea from the lowered guys and ziptied the valance up a little in the middle. Going to try and go without front plate as long as possible

It wont be big BL but if it isn't needed it probably wont happen. Was only going to go 1.5 for clearance not to make truck noticably taller.
