Default Lets see some before and after pictures of your trucks.

I bought this Dually to tow my boat, and it just seem like you do one upgrade its like opening a can of worms, needed tires so I had to get tires and Fuel Rims, Then I didn't like the gold on the bottom of truck with the black rims so painted bottom white and added fender fairs so the big tires would look better. Put the Mini Max tuner and dpf delete kit in. Then thought I had to change the front grill. I'm done I hope, but do like the way it came out!

How my '11 Duramax looked the day I drove it all the way home from MI to MN. Plain Jane!



Currently looks like this. Too many mods to list, but it's deleted with a H&S tuner running custom PPEI +200HP tune. Just finished installing a Katzkin interior and water/meth injection is coming soon.

A lot of subtle things here, so look close.

- Custom vinyl from auto zone, bumpers and headlights (head lights are hard to see in this photo)
- Hood scoops, right now they are just looks but I am gonna cut the hood soon for a true ram air effect
-Complete yellow interior. Believe it or not I did this with a spray can, seats and all. I also added wood trim accents and "back off" floor mats
-Flame grill, can't have enough flames
-Custom 4 trillion candle power light from a freighter. These are lag bolted directly into the bumper for a custom look

This year I am planning on deleting the muffler (home made) adding spacer blocks for a 1 inch lift, and doing the rims in yellow plasti dip. I will you keep you posted with more pics,

I toyed with a yellow interior, but I knew I couldn't pull it off unless I was pulling a Fountain.

How do you like the katskins? I am considering doing that on my next vehicle, seems the OE leather has went to crap the last 5 years.

This is before and after. I think it would be cool to have some nicer rims and tires, however we only use this to pull the boat. Just doesn't seem cost effective to do any upgrades. I did put a tune in the ECU, but that is it.
