hell cost! youve bought enough rims and tires to buy a crossmember. man you could have a rim and tire store front in front of your house with all these wheels ahaahha. Looking good man.

justpball · 10-30-2011, 07:13 PM

Fender and emblem look good!

Just a question, how hard was it to paint the steering column? Did the paint take very well to it??

justpball · 11-14-2011, 02:24 PM

Yea stuck good to the colmn, pain taping it all off though, if you just have to do the colomn, I would pull it out to do that...
The grill is the cheap flea bay one but I have to say with a little grinding to the back in a couple places it fit pretty well

cant say it often enough....your Burb is like my dream Suburban setup...

the only thing I would add is a xenon projector headlight setup with something from the TheRetrofitSource.....

buy some cheap Ebay projectorhousings and replace the projectors from that place...that would really finish it up for me...

these are Morimoto Mini's

Gordonr1973 · 11-21-2011, 07:46 PM

Looks perfect!!

One of the nicest (ok its a tie for nicest with your CCSB) on here!!

Conundrum · 11-21-2011, 07:49 PM

Looks almost like new.

One question, why didn't you replace the headlight bezel?

68Timber · 11-21-2011, 07:50 PM

I like it better. But don't tell your son that.

Next thing that brings me through there, I'd like to see it in person.
