1) De-badge it (take the side moldings off the doors and the LS off.

2) Billet grille inserts on the fronts.

3) 2/3 or 4/5 drop

4) flowmaster exhaust /w chrome outlet

5) K&N FIPK II

6) Tint the rest of the windows

7) Roll Pan on the back

8) Painted-to-match bug deflector and side window deflectors

9) Autopian-level detail

Yeah I'd leave those wheels on there alone, they're tight as h#ll.

Did this take the place of your Z28?

What about adding a pair of chrome tube shaped running boards.

shave the door handles off (if you want to go that far)

VERY Nice rims!

It might just be because the tires are blending in with the wheel well, but the 20's don't look like 20's!

if you add the spinners you are only bringing attention to your truck and that is not always a good thing.

3 link rear suspension with Airbags! or a Bell Tech 4/6 drop
22's all around
Roll pan
Paint the door handles or get some from an Escalade
remove door trim

You will get attention in this truck regardless. Very cool :cool

BTW I am not a big fan of the spinners. They seem too trendy right now. I am willing to bet that over the next year APC will make them and we will see them on every over-decorated 4 banger and rimmed up rust bucket.

I would leave those wheels on it, I think they look fine. Definately go with a chip, intake, and dual exhaust, probably Borla. Perhaps an aftermarket mesh or billet grille too. I'm not a big fan of lowering trucks or spinners, but that's just me. I'd keep it clean as possible. I love that color, by the way.

How about going the more practical route. Lift it 4-6 inches. Throw in some 35 or 36 inch tires. Add a front bumper with some Offroad lights. Throw in some nerf bars for running boards. Seriously. i think it will look much better than being lowriding. And you wont bottom out comming out of the driveway. ;-)
