You're right it does sound better... question, is that a GM replacement grill or line-x'd? ... if GM, what do you guys pay for that in the U.S.?... been thinking about one for my own, but no line-x here, and very very few (if any) places that would comprehend me wanting to scrub down and paint the chrome piece black  ... therefore I'd be easier shipping from the US.
Seriously though - looks great... another question, anyone got black door mirrors want to swap for chrome? - I'll do the shipping both ways (staff perk)
Cheers

Just seen the other thread - question answered - thanks anyway!

Re: Black Monster almost done, w/pics
justforfun,
I ruffed up the grill with one of those scuff pads and sprayed it with dupli-color bed liner (6 or $8.00 per can). I figure if it self destructs I will have it professionaly re-done. Anyway, it came out great, we will see if it holds up.

Re: Black Monster almost done, w/pics
Nice progress, but just like that other recently blacked out H3 here, it still looks "dainty" with those street tires. Any plans for some more aggressive meats?

Re: Black Monster almost done, w/pics
TXSUT,
I have no plans to go with a more aggressive tread. I dont do any heavy off roading and the tread on these tires will get the job done for me and still keep the road performance. Deep down inside I would love to put big mudders on it but that is not realistic for how I use the truck. Oh yeah, also my wife wont let me!!!!!  |

Oh, I'm sorry, that must be her cruiser in the driveway!
JK...my first wife was that way, this second one is a human being, way cool! Looks as if you'll just have to follow suit and get
the tires when those wear out. Which makes sense economically. Now that I think about it you might as well run the tread off the stock tires and then spend the cabbage on the ones you want...you know...the 315/75/16's!
It'll look more like a monster that way!
