drew95gt Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Not a fan of the linex, looks like it is just primered. I really liked it with the blue paint and minus the wheel spacers. At least you don't have to worry about waxing it, or getting rock chips, or even washing it for that matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

attentiongetter92 Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 I have seen this truck at Bob evans. I had to facepalm when I went and saw it was bedliner, however there was another bedlinered chevy there that looked worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4DAIVI PAI2K5 Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 If it didnt have the wheel spacers I would like it even more. But needless to say I still like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RSparky Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 The flat black needs a stripe or something. The wheels and bumpers draw too much attention fein a very bland "paint". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baptizo Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 How much lift did you put on it? 6" should have been sufficient to clear 35's and give it the right look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Butters Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 looks better now....didnt like it in original post, but it looks good now....for a chevy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omaralaoui Posted March 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 If it didnt have the wheel spacers I would like it even more. But needless to say I still like it!it only has wheel spacers in the rear , the lift expands the track width up front , so i had to add spacers in the rear to make it look even . i wouldn't really truck spacers up front anywaysThe flat black needs a stripe or something. The wheels and bumpers draw too much attention fein a very bland "paint".thanks for the honest opinionHow much lift did you put on it? 6" should have been sufficient to clear 35's and give it the right look?i have about 12" lift total , it has 22x14 wheels and 37 13.5 22 tires now, i barely clear them without trimminglooks better now....didnt like it in original post, but it looks good now....for a chevy lol, thank you sir !!

abdecal Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 Honestly... I love it. It's unique and definitely a head turner. I think people to often under value the work and passion (and money) that goes into making something your own.We see regular Chevy trucks all over the place and nobody pays any attention. No matter what your criticism is you know if you saw that thing pass you on the road you would wish you could take it for a spin.Great work and I like you made your vision for the truck a reality.
