Sold the Black DenaliHD and bought a white one last week. Pretty much identical to the black one except this one had a sunroof and the powerfold tow mirrors already.

Plans are big lift, big wheels, big tires. I'll update that as things become firm. Just waiting to hear back on confirmation from a few vendors with options on lift size, etc.

Only one pic for now, nothing really to see, just a stock 2015.5 DenaliHD.

So far I have had it tinted and added the BakFlip F1 Fibermax tonneau cover.

Ordered FloPro 5" downpipe back exhaust which will be getting dropped off at the powdercoater on Friday. 6" MBRP Polished exhaust tip will go with that.

Ordered an Airdog2 G4 lift pump and PPEI Autocal as well.

Amp steps are already here, just waiting for the deletes to happen before I install them. I ordered the ones for the non-diesel since they tuck up under the cab a little nicer than the ones for the Diesel.

Headlights have already been sent out to Phil @fastheadlights for an FXR retrofit and switchback boards. Painting them all summit white inside. No Halos, LEDs, colors, etc on this set.

The fenderwell arches will be sent off to paint this weekend as well.

I think that is about it. Been a busy week of ordering parts. Still have a bit to go!

 
Niice! Any pictures of the black one? Dont remember seeing it lol

Few updates. Painted the grill and wheel well arches. We are pulling off more for paint this weekend.

Picked up the exhaust from powder coat as well. Looks flawless. Love it.

Build is going to come to a stop for the next 2 weeks until the lift arrives from FTS. Then it's game on!

 
Few more updates...

Had the exhaust PCd. Came out really good. Very happy with the outcome. It is black textured PC. We wanted the exhaust to be subdued and blend in with the frame so it doesn't stick out, plus did not want any issues with corrosion or rust.



Just a small teaser from the boys at FTS...


Phil @fastheadlights knocked out a badass set of headlights for us with the switchback boards top/bottom, FXR projector swap, and frosted LED panels all painted up summit white to match Becky..



Last but not least... front end shot of the grill done. Still got a few more parts going out to paint including the chrome valance.
(LEDs are not busted in the pic, its just how they came out in the pic)



Big things happening in 2-3 weeks...

The leds are pulse width modulated to dim them down, meaning they are actually flashing super fast and your eye perceives it as dimmer light. The camera shutter can pick up the flashes though, that's why part of them look turned off. Look at led headlights and tail lights in people videos and you'll see them flash as the camera goes by.
 
I copy ya. Was more of a "yeah I know" comment before I got the "your truck is brand new and headlights are busted already" comments. Lol
 
Ended up working a deal with HSP Diesel and getting their intake, hot and cold side piping, and new bridge. All powdercoated white. And in the process I am now a dealer for them. :)

Pulling some more parts for paint this week and hoping to get the truck deleted/tuned and amp steps on by the weekend.

As long as our wheels show up from American force this week, she will be going up in the air the week of 10/5.
 
Tomorrow is delete day. She'll be tuned and lift pump installed too.

Wheels are done. Tires are in. Lift will be here end of week.

Goes in 10/12 for the final build...
