SSfan · 01-22-2009, 08:50 PM

sonomaguy · 01-23-2009, 10:15 AM

Very nice, I may have to get a Sonoma one made up

leadsled2020 · 01-23-2009, 05:10 PM

I just went and got my windows tinted..... 35% on the sides and 5% on the rear glass......
a few pics.....

leadsled2020 · 01-23-2009, 05:27 PM

I know it is a shitty camera phone pic but my buddy sent it to me to show what came in the mail today....(I ship every thing out there, he has a garage)

that is speedgrilles, new grille bowtie, brake rotors, pads, and SS mirrors...... prob put them on next week

-YumYum97s10- · 01-23-2009, 08:41 PM

well....may I say drop that thing! lol, tint looks good, cant wait to see the mirrors on it.

Iroc-10 · 01-23-2009, 10:50 PM

Found your post a few days late. I am basically in the STL, just moved over to A-town in Ill. I was going to say if your interested in a billet inset for your grill I have one, but looks like you just got your speed grill. Nice truck and nice project. I have a 94SS in black. Not as nice as yours, parts of mine in black primer, but new paint in the works as well as an lsX swap.Nice to see another local SS! :-)

prob going to do a 2/3 next week, my spindles came in last week, I was just waiting on my new brakes...... the full drop (air ride) wont happen for a few months yet

SSfan · 01-24-2009, 01:07 AM

I need to tint my side windows!

leadsled2020 · 01-24-2009, 01:11 AM

I was afraid that they would be bad at night...... I can see through them just as good as before.....

1sic03x · 01-24-2009, 01:00 PM

Yep, I have 35% on my sides and they are just fine at night. Thinking about going a bit darker though. Can't wait to see the mirrors on there.

slodime · 01-24-2009, 01:25 PM

Things are looking good

I gotta find a set of those wheelskins soon...

If you live in St. Louis are you doing the S-Series nats. I went a couple years ago and aside from the heat it was great.

from what I have gathered...... they arent doing it this year.... but I will be at Super Chevy in Chicago.... and am looking at Camp n Drag and the Carlisle All Truck Nats too.... not sure on any others yet..... probably do some small cruise nights and local shows....

leadsled2020 · 01-26-2009, 02:11 AM

I think I am going to go out and install all the shit that came in this week..... that is, if the weather doesn't get bad between now and then.....
so I will have new brakes, 2/3 drop, speedgrilles, SS mirrors, and a new bowtie in the grille....

WhiteDime73 · 01-26-2009, 06:45 PM

What's wrong with the bowtie that was in there? Didn't fit?

SSfan · 01-26-2009, 07:14 PM

It probly faded out, mine did the same thing and i had to get a new one, they cost an arm and a leg though

leadsled2020 · 01-26-2009, 11:11 PM

so i'm pissed.......the rotors that i ordered are the wrong ones..... they have no ABS ring......i even called before i ordered to make sure that i got the right ones and those dumbass dot-head indian shits in customer service don't know their heads from their asses....
so now I have to send them back and wait for a refund to order new ones....
F*CK!

leadsled2020 · 01-26-2009, 11:12 PM

on a positive note.... the mirrors are on, the speedgrilles are installed, and the truck now sports a 2/3 drop...

SSfan · 01-26-2009, 11:46 PM

did you get an alignment yet

-YumYum97s10- · 01-26-2009, 11:50 PM

leadsled2020 · 01-27-2009, 05:17 PM

I'll get pics up in a little bit, the brakes are EBC.... but I bought them from US Auto Parts online..... and no alignment yet, prob do that Thursday....... If I have the money....... I haven't even driven it yet..... the weather here is horrible...

zack · 01-28-2009, 04:44 AM

i guess winter started its own project white out.....i thought about whiting my truck out but i cant decide if i wanna do that or white with black accents

I hope that's not true... I've been every year since '04

Even if they don't make it a big show... I wouldn't be surprised if the hardcore guys still show up just to party. It's tradition. Besides, most of us already have it on our calendar, and the days off from work

Can't wait to see your updated pics.... that's a good looking truck.

I think that a bunch of guys are still going down there..... just no show and shine....
......and thanks for the compliments guys.......... it keeps the motivation up

I'll get some pics up when I can,I want to wash the truck first, but with snow everywhere it is kinda pointless.....
I'm going to the St. Louis autoshow tonight, maybe I'll get to see the new Camaro....

sonomaguy · 01-28-2009, 04:11 PM

leadsled2020 · 01-30-2009, 07:30 PM

zack · 01-30-2009, 07:36 PM
