I think it would look cool to smoke them to go with the black look.

 

I'm really considering going to the pick 'n pull and getting some corners to VHT. I figure thats a cheap option for the corners. But I love the ones that Matt (cbr995) has on his ride, I think they're very clean looking.

Oh, and was going to install LEDs today, but I underestimated how much to use when I ordered the strips. Got another one on the way, should install both sets next weekend at some point. Also, Edelbrock SDT muffler ships on Friday. 2 1/2" in/out, stainless steel for $90. AWESOME!

Next on the "to order" list: ACDelco wires.

 

I just noticed your Cardomain page, and it got me wondering...What kind/brand of paint did you use for the front chrome strip?? It looks like a damn near match to the factory paint.

I'll be doing mine soon...when the snow melts...

Can't wait to hear the muffler too. I wanna see how those LEDs turn out also. Keep us posted!

 

Those rims look awesome ...... i have always been a fan of I-rocs on S trucks .... excellent choice

 

Thanks! There will certainly be more updates to come For the primer, paint, and clear coat I used Krylon Fusion spray cans. Sand it down, 2 coats of primer, sanded, another coat of primer, 2 coats of paint, and one coat of clear. The cans say no sanding necessary, but they lie lol.

Thanks! A lot of hard work was put into the prepping for painting those rims. Glad to hear positive feedback!

 

I agree

I want those goddam things gone, they're packed up and ready to go, just waiting for a buyer. I'd even install them for you but for reasons that don't need mentioning that's not gonna happen. I got alot of comments from my friends about how it set the look of the truck off, and I think it'd go good with the silver lip you have on the rims. I've never been a fan of tinted corner lights personally.

Either way, those IROC's are pure sex. nicely done.

 

Thanks Pat! Wish I could have bought those corners off of you, but glad to hear about the local sale, always a good thing.

Green LEDs came in yesterday. I tested them out briefly once I got them out of the packaging, and they're exactly what I was looking for. Hopefully installing this weekend at some point.

 

Been a few weeks, but finally had the time to install the LEDs yesterday. Went to take pics and the camera died as soon as I turned it on. So pics later today. Overall, they look AWESOME! So now that I have this crossed off my to-do list.... I'm waiting for the funds to come in to get fog lights or my muffler put on. Which to do first?

 

Muffler!!!

 

Muffler. It would be less work.
Be sure to post a video of the exhaust.
