    Mostly just being very busy with work. I was in the Dominican for 2 weeks then just got back from Mexico yesterday. 12" travel Bilstein 5100s ordered for the rear along with Bilstein 7-9s for the front. Probably going to order wheels this week and try to get it done next weekend.

    Small update:

    A local guy agreed to paint by bumper plastic. He's all through with the upper pads and sent me some pictures. Lower pad with sensors, front valence, tailgate cap, and mirrors will get done as well.

    Wow he did a super job on the bumper pads, I know I had a lot of time just in sanding mine before I painted them. Local body shops won't even normally touch these pieces as they are time consuming, can't wait to see the lift kit and stuff on the truck!!

    Thanks man! He did definitely do an awesome job. He's a painter at a GMC dealer doing this on the side, it took me forever to find someone that'd do it.

    That red GMC looks real nice. I like the way your trucks look now. I'd leave it but to each there own.

    Don't sweat the haters brother... there will always be someone out there that thinks unless you build your truck EXACTLY the way they built theirs, you're doing it wrong lol.

    And only because I am a picture ho, and I know how much it motivates you... some of my old truck







    and for the good ole boys that think a truck bed is for recovery straps and stacks

    Every time I see your old truck it makes me want Diesels Bill. I'm definitely doing a painted HD cap like that too. Need to decide if I'm going to paint the bottom of my mirrors or get tows and match those.
