HIDs are baller, go for it! I like blue HIDs on black trucks personally.

LED's look cheesy IMO. The clear deals look better out of the pics you posted up. IS your lights damaged at all? I might be interested in buying them.

Second set of lights and HIDs for sure, but in a 5000-6000k range. The blue and purple lights don't give off **** for actual usable light.

I've seen the clear lensed gmc lights with hids, they blind the hell out of me with a tinted shield. Retro-fit real projectors, or skip them. That same truck (white) has the "crystal clear" version of that black light set. They look pretty good. Skip the leds. Satin powder coat on the grill would look nice

1. HELL YES To the Cowl hood !!

( Anything GM looks awesome with a cowl hood)

2. I like the second set better also, but really those are the coolest looking LEDs ive seen thus far.

3. No SS cover, If you do a cover, A DENALI cover would be awesome, Actually if i had your truck i would make the front end look like this , only with a cowl hood.



This is 03sierraslt 's truck, Perfect front end IMO.

No HIDs in the highs, it takes too long for them to heat up so you end up with a second or two of no light unless you do the all on mod.
