Hey guys,

My names Mike. Been lurking around here reading up on these interesting trucks. I just purchased an 05' V8 with bags... For the groceries of course... Coming out of my c5 2.7t (bad break up) its a big difference. Right now its completely stock and well taken care of by the previous owner at 37k miles. I have not figured out the pics yet but as soon as I do I will post. I have a few Ideas already.. gunna get FUNKY with it in my own way. Motivation being that repo treg that was what inspired the purchase. Looking foward to the experience in the forum..

I'm not really sure on how to tell the difference... I have nav and a cd changer in the back. My mods have been postponed cause of an ankle injury skiing. But I got some stuff already waiting to go on... Vinyl wrap (matte dark grey).... Repo men luggage rack extended... And ECS front and rear bumper protectors. Come spring I should be set up.

I like the looks, very nice, but...

Boss, why don't you just paint your tail lights instead of buying new ones? There are a lot DIY videos on how to darken the tail lights..

Oh, and did you consider to get the whole R50 body kit? :D

Got sick last week so the wrap was at a Stand still. But we up to the front fender now... And look what just came in... Rubber should be in on Sat. Right on time to finish the rest of the wrap.
Is it my imagination, but does the wrapping result in a matte finish, or is that a matter of choice?

Stu....

Yep, I see matte black and matte white quite a bit. Not the grey so much, unless it's a primered rat-rod or a beater. Looks really good. You should have done red wheels and some white wall tires to really make it ratty! :-0

Saw this matte white job the other night. California plates lead me to believe this person doesn't know how hard it will be to keep it clean in Colorado. Hopefully just visiting to show off to their friends how coooooool they are. ?

That white looked good from the front.... The rear looks like a dirty whitie tightie.. lol. Thanx for the pic... I was thinking white on the next car. Not anymore.! I think the dirt will make the grey look even better! Thanx to the nitro terra grapplers.
