SC wants to throw a SS bumper on a damn Z71... how is that the same as rudy's? they look NOTHING alike! lol
Its going to look totally different than rudy's truck. his is low mine is lifted I Think people will be able to tell the differance
 
i certainly dont want to piss in anybodys boot but i think sc got the whole idea for that cover came from a photoshop of my truck. its in a thread somewhere around here.

i havent done this yet because im poor, but it was actually Xtreme07s idea to do this to my Z71 and i was looking for a "bumper idea" because the one i have doesnt really "fit" the truck anymore and we thought a ss cover would be a unique idea for a red Z71 4x4.

i must admit when i found out sc was not only doing the ss cover but a cowl hood as well i lost some of enthusiasm for the ss cover, to this point i think i have one of the most unique Z71s around. i have put the ss cover idea on the shelf.... ill come up with something else or maybe still do the ss cover, i dunno.

heres the my z71 with the photoshopped ss cover....borrowed from foxcraze.

heres another idea i had...painted some combo of red and black. i just dont like how much of the tire you can see from the front view

rrcn and sc...you guys both have nice trucks
 
Believe me I will.

I just hope know one gets mad at me because I'm putting on a cowl hood.
Well I am glad you are and I doubt anyone is going to give you a hard time about it. I just like to see what everyone is capable of, it would be boring if everyone's stuff looked similar! :355:

im with ya... like I said.. I was upset that my phantom fog grilles were now longer something so few people had.... I know how rudy is feelin... but if SC wants to throw a SS bumper on a damn Z71... how is that the same as rudy's? they look NOTHING alike! lol

Rudy.. Im not hating on ya man... just trying to say my input.
It would look identical if he used all the same components. Whatever, it is not worth getting into it with the people I've learned to respect and admire on these forums. SC understands where Rudy is coming from and is doing his part by personalizing it to his taste. I don't really have much else to say :shrug:

Like I said I got the idea from rusty not rrcn. I purchased my cowl hood in december so I did not take that from you rusty. I liked the look of it on a show I was watching plus my dads friend has a silverado with one.

:high5: I see where your coming from... I also think it will look different on a Z71 than a lowered truck..:D
 
i agree with both 2wenty2 n switz. although its gonna look similar to rudy's truck, i think it will also look hellava different. maybe paintin the vents a different color than black would make it even more unique. dunno wut colors you could use, just throwin it out there

theres a difference between 1 part and the whole front end bro.
Its not the whole front end. I'm putting on a bumper cover and a speed grille. thats 2 things I'm putting on the front end. he still has different head lights than me.

I don't know of any colors but black that I would like there.

as for the paint being custom I've seen a lot of rados with the same color bowtie and vents.
 
How do people think that just because they don't see a truck like theirs on the internet they MUST be the first, and MUST be the only one? Do you people realize that there are MAYBE 1000-1500 active and regular posting members between both major 355 forums? There have been several hundred thousand 355's sold, and I'm sure there have been thousands upon thousands of Gen II covers and speed grilles sold. Rudy, I respect you and like your truck but you're being ridiculous. You have the most popular aftermarket bumper cover, with one of the most popular grille inserts, on one of the most common colors. Do you really think you're the only person with that in the whole world? Just because someone else isn't posting pictures of it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. SC doesn't even live near you, and the rest of his truck is completely different. No offense, but you guys aren't driving one off sponsored show trucks these are just nicely customized daily drivers. Do what you like and don't worry about what you saw some guy on the internet do, and quit crying about stupid shit.

how about looking into something like...

black powder coated Speed grilles?.... Maybe adding Speed grilles to the "Foglight" spaces on the SS bumper?

Billet grilles and having the billet in the SS Bumper instead of speed?

there is a million things you can think of.

I might do the black speed grille but would have to see a picture of it on my truck.

I don't want to cover up my fog light holes because I found some fog lights that will tuck in there.

You totally missed my point.

But that's fine, I'm done explaining myself. Switzxx20 and Commondude also helped explain it as well.

Reread what I wrote.

I'm not crying about it, I'm saying do something slightly different.

Doing the whole same front end is lame.

Thanks That make me feel better. I was kind of feeling like just because he has it I can't.
I wasn't saying that, I was saying do something different. Hell, just a different fucking color.

Jesus. You don't know how to read worth shit dude.

I'm done responding.

You need to chill out man. Black and white go together. I think any other color would look funny. I really don't care what you say any more dude I'm going to do it. we'll never run into each other so what does it even matter. I really wouldn't even care if someone copied me. I would in fact take it as a compliment. I don't know you but your acting like the chicks on "MY SWEET SIXTEEN" freaking out about stuff.
