Thumbs up First mod to the truck

Well,got the Corsa from Keith today and put it on the truck.Definitely alot better than the factory POS.Quiet at idle and get's load at WOT.Absolutely no interior noise

So thanks Keith for hooking me up with the exhaust

Now,I'm throwing alittle tune in it,maybe the wife won't notice

Man I really would like to hear how it sounds.
I would put on my avalanche but I don't want it to be loud.

Those tips are badass. The only thing I dont like is the tires kick up all kinds of crap onto them. Kills that chrome like finish so quick.

Can you get any decent look mud flaps or do you think it'd look gay?

Don that truck needs some Fender Flares.
I put the factory fender flares on my truck and it made keeping the truck cleaner easier, also put some molded mud flaps on mine.
