I just bought a 2012 Silverado with only 60k miles, it's in the body shop right now getting the spray-in bed liner and the wheel wells coated as well. I was fortunate enough to have bought it from a guy who had put some nice mods into it and I am just adding a bit more, I plan on keeping this truck for a long time and have some plans for it! Great video and great ideas, thanks!
Great video. Just bought a 2010 Silverado extended cab and looks just like yours and I want to do pretty much everything you did to yours so I’m glad I came across your video.
I started doing mods to my 2011 Silverado little by little. At first I was going to try to keep the look stock so I purchased some LED headlights, tail lights, and backup lights. I did end up converting the third brake light and license plate lights to LED. Also added a K&N air filter. Because I live in the Midwest, rust is starting to form on the wheel wells so I'm doing some body work. I like the clean look of your truck and will start de-badging it and take off those huge side moldings! I also did dual exhaust with a Flowmaster 40 so there's that.
I drive a 2009 sierra, 5.3, crew, sb, z71, has long tubes, true dual straights, a 7.5" RC lift, 3" rc body lift, 37x13.50s on 22x14-76 american offroads, 5% tint all the way around, HID 12K violet lowbeams in the front with led daytime switchbacks, tinted halos for the fogs, bushwacker fender flares, painted to match, ranch hand bull nose full front replacement bumper, and a complete line-x paint job for the entire truck. Inside: AFM delete chip, 8" touch screen, 2x 12" Kicker Q-Class L7s on 2400w RMS, but it ain't much...
i have an 07 1500 extended cab RWD did a leveling kit on it and got the biggest bajas i could fit. they still feel too skinny, small but theyll do. added those same headlights as you but not smoked and changed the bulbs to some bright ass ones. only bummer is i have to turn on my fog lights to get the drl going. also did new led tailights and third break light. have a cai in there as well. i bought bumper end caps and lights to add them as well as the front bumper beneath the grill that has the air flow hole like yours. im gonna try to paint thr end caps on my own got cans from store where they matched my paint. might have to take it in for install tho
nice truck, my 08 has a RC 6 inch lift, Moto Metal 20's 33's on it, smoked headlights, light bar, rock lights, omg and much more......... im in my truck for about id say 7k now lol, damn i didnt realize that lol, my shit looks sick thou, love the truck, oh i had the active fuel management deleted, that is the best thing ive ever done
You can find the different color matched part numbers i can find for you. but i juat bought used one of facebook from a local and had a friend sand prime and colormatch to my truck
@@Derec I bought a rusted to shit 2006 1500HD for only $700 with the 5.3 L33 aluminum block in it. Just some body pannel replacements and rocker panel replacements and it will look much better. It runs and drives flawlessly.
20k truck downgraded = 10k truck with 9000 in upgrades... See thats why u don't make a truck a hobby dude could be driving a stock 2020 if he just chilled
@@Derec I have a 2010 1500 LTZ and the grill is not like this one. Do you think the year has anything todo with it? I know the 2500 have this look. Thanks for the video!

That is low miles! Yea, buying a truck with mods installed saves cash. Thank you and you are welcome.

That front looks sick, good choice on grille and getting it painted 👍
I agree, thank you for your great observation
Which grille is that? What vehicle has it?
i have a 2008 silverado since 2015 and i gotta say i love my truck !! gonna keep it till im old✔️
A marvelous vehicle to have indeed
That exhaust needs redone!! I don’t think I’ve seen anything like that before. but it’s a nice build
New components installed
*did you use playdough to connect the the muffler and pipe* 😂😂😂😭🤣🤣
No, I made a tutorial video on what I did use
Josh lol the 1st 33 seconds in! I see it
nice truck, my 08 has a RC 6 inch lift, Moto Metal 20's 33's on it, smoked headlights, light bar, rock lights, omg and much more......... im in my truck for about id say 7k now lol, damn i didnt realize that lol, my shit looks sick thou, love the truck, oh i had the active fuel management deleted, that is the best thing ive ever done
I feel ya on the paint PA is rough on vehicles my 2011 is always up to date on undercoat
body lift is the WORST thig to do on a truck!!
Thank you for sharing this. I enjoyed your video.
You are welcome. Thank you for tuning in.
If you live in a really rusty area is there any way you prevent rust on the body
Nice truck! I have a 2015 Silverado 4x4 with a 8” bds lift and 37” mt tires and 22x12 rims. And I live in Florida so my truck is rust free thank god😂
that is a great setup, I wish I did not have rust
bds dosent make a 8 inch kit????
Just because you yelled at the plane I subscribed and liked hahah
Haha thanks, the pesky airplanes have done it again
*Plane goes by*
"SHUT UP"
🤣🤣🤣🤣
The plane utilizing super sonic sonar received every word
That color is awesome
I wholeheartedly agree
What grill does this come from?
Where can I find that “LTZ GM grill” I really don’t want to do the 2500 front end conversion. Too expensive. Do you have a link to buy it?
was lucky enough to find a black one online then had to paint it
You can find the different color matched part numbers i can find for you. but i juat bought used one of facebook from a local and had a friend sand prime and colormatch to my truck
Shoutout From San Diego 🤙🏻
Greetings, thanks for watching
I just put velcro on my middle console lid🤣
that would work as well and probably does not rattle
I know this is 4 years old.... but that's an awesome idea.
I was hoping to see motor and transmission mods ideas to add to mine. All youre mods are for looks and lift
In the making and coming soon! The truck is already E85 capable.
Where did you get the tow mirrors?
eBay
Truck looks good man 👍
thank you very much
Unless the truck is just for work.. I don’t see why not get the crew cab
Holy Cummins tags! 🤣😁
just trying to disperse the friendship
@@Derec lol heck yeah
Both of my center console latches are broke 😂
Nice truck !! I have the same truck is just a bit older it’s an 08 Silverado 4 I need the cover for the center console u got where did u buy yours ?
The center console I have is stock, I did have to repair the latch
Sick paint job
I appreciate that man thank you
@@Derec how much was that paintjob
It's not about being cheap guys. It's about being efficient so you can put more money into her hahaha
You have a link to those headlights?
will have to add links in the items, hold my water bottle
My truck looks exactly the same.... color height everything except the tire ...oh and my grill is Crome...... and I live in Pennsylvania.....😂😂😂
Tag team racing! Jolly good show
@@Derec anytime😂😂🔥
$8,400... that's not bad at all
And that is just the cost of the mods alone without the catastrophic truck payments

Link to headlights?
old truck stop from down the lane
where’d you get the grill
The factory LTZ trim grille is from a GM auto parts supplier.
You should put 20 in. Fuel wheels on it.
How wide of a rim
20k truck downgraded = 10k truck with 9000 in upgrades... See thats why u don't make a truck a hobby dude could be driving a stock 2020 if he just chilled
I figured I would hold on to my first truck
Where did you get that grill?
had to track down an LTZ grille and paint
@@Derec I have a 2010 1500 LTZ and the grill is not like this one. Do you think the year has anything todo with it? I know the 2500 have this look. Thanks for the video!
Holy fuck that exhaust is horrible 🤣🤣 and when you telling us a steering wheel cover is a “mod” I clicked off truck does look good gmt900
Umm how tf were your shock absorbers upside down? Isn’t that impossible? 😂
Each side of the shock had identical mounting
nice bro
thank you very much
U should straight pipe ur Silverado and see what she sounds like
Trevor Sichting his truck isn't a girl. He says it's a gay dude.
BAMA WOODSMAN wouldn’t surprise me. He nvr does what he say
yea just waiting for this muffler to go
@@istinklikebutt45 LMFAO! He'll probably be putting a rainbow sticker on soon!
4:03 I'm crine😂😂😂😂
hahaha good times
Dude your description is ridiculous
Just attempting to spread the word
truck!
Thanks
You lost every ounce of credibility from that exhaust job...
Temporary until the dump tip is fabricated
That's it? My wheels and tires are 10 GS
I had to start somewhere
@ Joey I bet you’re a real dipshit in person as well 🤣
