Black02Silverado's 2019 Silverado

[Black02Silverado]

OK here are a few pictures I was able to take today. I did get LED license plate bulbs installed. Man what a difference. Never did understand why GM has LED everywhere else but on the license plate.

I also got different running boards. Got the wheel to wheel HC boards off and put a nicer looking, (IMO) off road style on. These are at least a good 15lbs lighter than the factory HC ones.

The dealer removed the HC badge from the front fenders, they were supposed to remove them from the tail gate as well. No big deal, they come off super easy with a heat gun.

List of upcoming mods.
1. tint front side windows and add ceramic clear solar protectant to the rest. Leaving the windshield alone other than adding a strip across the top. Not sure why GM passed on that as well being a HC.
2. Install the GM cold air intake. I want to run it on the dyno as is and get a base line, then install the CAI and see what difference it makes. The GM CAI also included with the price for me to take it to the dealer and they will flash the ECM for the new intake. Then run on the dyno again and see if there is any difference.
3. Get it paint corrected and ceramic coated.
4. Install a different muffler. I don't see the benefit of paying major bucks for a cat back system. It isn't a race truck. LOL I just want it to sound better, way to quiet.
5. Wheels and new tires will be next but when these tires are in need of replacement. My bank account is kind of low after purchasing this thing. But I did save over $400 on the running boards and CAI over black Friday.

Now this is cool, this is the rear view mirrior but a camera mounted on the back of the cab. It is going to take a little getting use too.





These are the factory GM floor liners. They fit perfectly. Glad I got them. Same cost if not less than Weathertech or Husky.




That is the front camera below the bow tie. I wanted to find a black grill but I can't find one that has the camera. So looks like chrome it is.




Lots of storrage. They got ride of the hidden compartment behind the MyLink and put a small well in the dash above it.




This is the tailgate release button, to the left is the trailer hitch camera and back up cam and to the right is and LED so you can see the hitch at night.



The spray in liner came on the truck, it went from the factory to a place that installs the liners.






Unboxing the new steps.






Factory HC steps.



These went from wheel to wheel.

This cross over tube is smashed pretty good. I'm sure it doesn't do any favors to performance.




This is the bottom of the side review mirror. There is a camera there and an LED courtesy light.






I'm behind the drivers seat and I have it back where I sit comfortable. I'm 6'. You can see that there is a ton of room in the back between the front and back seat.



Heated outer back seats.

VERY nice, my friend! Look at those rounded wheel wells! About time, I bet I could stuff some 35s in there with 2 inches of level

Congratulations! It's a freakin awesome rig!


Make sure you don't tell your dealership that you had the CAI on the truck without the tuning...


As for the crushed exhaust portion, it doesn't make a power difference on the Camaro.... So it shouldn't be noticeable on the trucks, lol.

Yep, standard 6.6' bed.

Guys have already put 35's on with a level kit and no rubbing.

Your camaro doesn't have true duals? My 2013 did, no crushed pipe underneath. Even had an X pipe.
