"new" truck
Traded my Impala for this 02 Silverardo 2wd. I plan on losing the tails for some stock ones and taking off the chrome fender trim.

Re: "new" truck
Looks good to me, I agree about the tails and fender trim... not my style either.

Re: "new" truck
Looks pretty good -- I think step one and step two are the same things I'd do. I'd go to a set of 03+ tails...and I think a set of the newer LTZ wheels would look great with that color combo.
Is it a 5.3?

Re: "new" truck
Welcome to the other side!! Good looking truck! I've been loving mine. Almost don't miss the OBS anymore.
Your plans sound good. Don't forget to add a suspension drop to those plans.

Re: "new" truck
No drop! Come on, just a little. Definitely level if nothing else. Keep us updated.

Re: "new" truck
*ducks* I actually like the chrome wheel trim, I think it looks good on the 2wd trucks.
The 4x4's looks cool with the stock fender flares. But yes, those taillights are terrible.
