I'm going to have to find some junk yards around here, kind of difficult in San Diego :/ there is one about 20 mins away but they wont let you pull so prices are a bit more and it tough to make sure you get everything.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I have a couple of those yards around me also. I never see them do much business though. Hopefully something turns up for ya though!

Hell yea that orange looks awesome man. Nice wheels too. I say get some wheel spacers in the rear and youre set. It would prob look dope if you debadged the rear and maybe the taillights smoked too. Maybe try tahoe tow hooks I heard theyre good. I have my stock ones painted black still but want to get some tahoe ones.
