kpeloke 10-05-2008, 01:32 AM I am considering painting the grille black and leaving the bowtie chrome. I know it kinda looks like something RBP would make, but what do you guys think? (BTW, this is a photshop image, I haven't done it yet) 73450 kcb37 10-05-2008, 07:07 AM That looks good. Just a thought of mine though. Have you thought of painting it black, and leaving the big bars silver. Would break up the solid black some. dr_unspoken 10-05-2008, 07:09 AM Dang looks real! 06SIXSPEEDMANUAL 10-05-2008, 09:12 AM Looks good!!! I have to agree, is sure does look real. I think I need to start playing with photoshop now BIGRED08 10-05-2008, 11:58 AM looks real good. i think you should pop out the chrome trim piece in the hood and paint that black to. scoot 10-05-2008, 12:01 PM hood piece needs to be black ,other then that , thats a go on the black... it looks rbp but CHEAPER. DMAX Will 10-05-2008, 12:57 PM looks real good. i think you should pop out the chrome trim piece in the hood and paint that black to. x2 kpeloke 10-05-2008, 01:01 PM Like this? 73453 DMAX Will 10-05-2008, 01:05 PM Like this? 73453 Like that. You think about doing any of the bumper also? And is that the color of black you would do or would it match the trucks paint color? jrad12381 10-05-2008, 01:08 PM It Looks Sick....do It! monsterD 10-05-2008, 01:56 PM looks good, but im a fan of a black out!! BIGRED08 10-05-2008, 02:10 PM that looks real good. i want to paint my grill black and paint the trim piece red to match the truck and that just motivated me to do it even more! kpeloke 10-05-2008, 02:39 PM I am not sure if I should color match the truck paint or do a flat black... fire0021 10-05-2008, 02:53 PM match the truck imo alvareracing 10-06-2008, 02:42 PM do your bumper too! Meeko 10-06-2008, 03:24 PM Match the truck and do the bumper and grill black. Then do a billet bowtie. That would be pimpin kpeloke 10-06-2008, 03:49 PM Will do...I will post pics when complete. I am thinking I should do the whole bumper black...no? bobdel01 10-06-2008, 04:50 PM I really like what you were doing and actually was planning on doing something similar with my grille rather than spending the $$$ on the RBP one (http://rollingbigpower.com/products/product_info.php?cPath=25_65&products_id=79) let me know how it was to do, was thinking of using this grille http://www.stylintrucks.com/parts.aspx?category|category_root|-25=Exterior&category|cat_-25|148=Grilles&canned_results_trigger=&partfamilyid=3525 and painting the border to match the body and the rest black csx5197 10-06-2008, 05:22 PM That looks pretty sharp dieseldave01 10-06-2008, 05:23 PM do it all black kpeloke 10-07-2008, 01:03 AM Here it is with the bumper black too...I kinda like it. 73572 DMAX Will 10-07-2008, 01:10 AM I like that..looks good with the chrome bowtie IMO z79outlaw 10-07-2008, 01:12 AM I would leave the inserts silver. kpeloke 10-07-2008, 01:28 AM You mean leave the billet inserts chrome? kpeloke 10-07-2008, 01:33 AM ??????? 73574 z79outlaw 10-07-2008, 01:33 AM You mean leave the billet inserts chrome? yeah I wasnt sure if there were chrome or stainless or what, so I figured silver would be a good term. The all black pic looks good but I think it needs a little somthing to set it off. z79outlaw 10-07-2008, 01:34 AM ??????? 73574 That looks awesome right there. Wanna trade trucks?:D fire0021 10-07-2008, 10:27 AM Here it is with the bumper black too...I kinda like it. 73572 that looks greattttttttttt do it tht way :) dieseldave01 10-07-2008, 11:10 AM that looks awesome scoot 10-07-2008, 03:16 PM ??????? 73574 makes me wish i had a black truck . it looks really good let me know when you get it done , i want to see pics and get details on how you did it,, check my garage for pics of my bumper and end caps as they are painted to match the truck...do the whole front end in black..get black wheels too , black exhaust..tint the windows limo black... big fan of black Daves DD 2500HD 10-07-2008, 03:27 PM Both the pics in post #21 and #25 are awesome. I don't know which I like better. I think I'd lean towards #25, but wouldn't be ashamed to have #21 either. 07HDClassic 10-08-2008, 02:50 AM I would go for painting the whole front end. I'm painting my grill in a week or two and was thinking about doing my bumpers too. 08chevyhauler 10-14-2008, 03:22 PM where are the grille inserts from? ive got the same truck ltz, looking to do similar to the grille Grouperassasin 10-14-2008, 04:53 PM Either one of the last ones looks SICK! I love black, wish I had more time to properly take care of one! One of the other guys on here had the Anzo Black Halo lights on a truck with the all black front end and it was probably the baddest new LMM I've seen by far. Try a search for the halo lights and check it out. Post up pics when you do it. kpeloke 06-25-2009, 10:40 PM Well this is what I have so far....let me know what you think! I think I am too afraid to do the bumper... 87481 87482 87483 blownblue 06-26-2009, 12:05 AM I so love the bowtie gonna have to look into one of those.. But do the bumper it looks sooo good when done. I love mine.. What brand billet grill do you have? http://i54.photobucket.com/albums/g101/blownblue/cars/IMG_0563.jpg kpeloke 06-26-2009, 12:22 AM Yeah...you're bumper looks sweet! If I do the bumper, I'll probably do the top chrome hood guard too. It's a Precision Billet... blownblue 06-26-2009, 12:28 AM Do you like the grill? Sorry to take it off topic I think if you did the side caps and top piece it would make things flow good if your going to keep the billet chrome looking the bumper kinda ties in a bit. I have seen that done and like it alot. I just have a look I am shooting for with my truck and almost have the outside done then I can get to work on my motor. 96GMC6.5L 06-26-2009, 07:36 AM Well this is what I have so far....let me know what you think! I think I am too afraid to do the bumper... 87481 87482 87483 Do the top chrome piece under the hood now and call it good. Looks great! nekkidhillbilly 06-26-2009, 08:23 AM paint all the chrome griull bumper hood piece and do the bowtie chrome look 100 times better that way DIESAHL 06-26-2009, 01:10 PM i think just the hood piece just be plenty. looks real sharp whtALLIMAX 07-07-2009, 01:13 PM Here it is with the bumper black too...I kinda like it. 73572 IMO I think this brings the whole front end together and brings that billet bowtie out more. Looks awesome. Black it out! kpeloke 07-08-2009, 12:46 AM I just did the hood piece black, I will get pics up soon. | ||
