      Just picked up my black 2017 Z71 a few weeks back. So far I've only done tint, running boards, Diablo tune and Line-X bedliner. Hoping for some tow mirrors soon (Boost auto?) and swap out the blue bowties for black, among other things

    Looks like you care more about how your truck looks than how it performs. You remind me of my old friend JonJon lol. Typical city guy like yourself and we talked him into actually using his truck for what it’s intended for. The first stick that scratched his truck sounded like the imitation from the first ‘nightmare on elm street’ and JonJon turned about 3 shades of white. I say to him; don’t worry Jonny boy, it’s only the first scratch that really bothers you the most! 😱

    Got a 2018 GMC Sierra Z71 6.2l, myself. Picked it up about a month ago from a Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep dealership...the sold it to me as a 5.3l, unknowingly.
    Gonna de-chrome it asap...never liked all that shiny shit on my vehicles. Looks cheap and gaudy. Just got N-Fab rock rails installed, with the really nice removable steps. Getting the 2" level kit and 17" Fuel Zephyr beadlocks with BF Goodrich Baja AT 39's, deleted the muffler and removed the flapper valve (only do on the 6.2l, not as nice sounding on a 5.3l), ordered an S&B cold air (the only cold air you should use because it's box sealed and is a real CAI instead of that fake crap like K&N). Then getting a top LED bar and steel front and rear bumpers.

    The best mod hands down for our ‘16 Silverado LTZ is the 2.9 Whipple on it.
    Also has a Corsa Sport side exit exhaust.
    Only running about 6 lbs...but it’s night and day difference from stock.

    Doing a suspension upgrade coil overs and rear shocks are probably the best thing to do over all modifications. The stock rancho shocks are garbage. Just put eibach pro truck 2.0 adjustable front coilovers and rear shocks on my 15’ GMC Sierra after 85k miles with the stock suspension. It made me feel like I just drove off the dealership lot with my sierra all over again.
