  • A deleted LML Duramax is the PERFECT GM Diesel Truck! Mine has a few issues that need to be fixed, plus I also have some upgrades to install. I truly believe this is the BEST looking GM truck ever made! (okay MAYBE squarebody takes it...)

    I still think the truck is missing something,
    I mean dont get me wrong, its a beautiful build,
    but the tail lights dont match the rest of the lighting on the truck.
    Just about every other light on the truck is tinted black.
    Also you left the rear bumper plastic black, which i do see quite often and i dont know if its just over looked or if it just isnt as well liked when painted to color match.
    But still, its a beautiful build.

    • @matt13ross
      @matt13ross  Před 7 dny +1

      No tint on any of the lights, but yes, the inside of the lights are black. I love my OEM style tail lights. Black tail lights look awful IMO. I also hate when too much black plastic is painted to match, looks cheap and doesn't last. I just the steps on my rear bumper, I don't want to paint those.

    • @Luke_VdK
      @Luke_VdK Před 6 dny +1

      I guess that does make sense
      To me, it's either hit or miss on what you do with the tail lights, and so it's always safer to leave the lights red
      I own a white 2000 silverado reg cab short box that I'm building into my own little street truck right now.
      To avoid the tinting hassle, I left the red tail lights and painted the bow ties red, along with red break calipers, to tie everything together. That way, I don't need to change the lights out.
      I do agree with that on the bumper plastic though.

    So it’s your truck , pick whatever trim you like. But I would’ve just wrapped the factory trim if you can’t find billet ones or brushed aluminum or something like that. Wheels are awesome ✅ ( same ones complaining about the wheels you paid for to put on the truck you bought are prolly the same type of people who wouldn’t hold the door open for an elderly person while walking in or out of a store.. 🖕🏻 losers ) that should piss them off 🤣🤣
