New front end for Mexico?
#21
teh only reason i wouold think that photo is chopped is because look at the front fender. it has the black fender flares (or whatever). and the back just doenst have them? maybe they just fell off though

Dosent look chopped to me... look inside the interior... like where the headrests and drives side back window are. That would be pretty hard to chop especially with the trees there

the thing about mexico is that they just mix and match parts. they dont care what year they belong to. for the old style surburbans they used to use a gmc grille with an oversized bowtie in the middle of it. also they used 2500 badging with 5 lug wheels.

If I'm not mistaken, they also used to get a crew-cab S-10 with a V-8 !!! (or was that in Brazil?) I remember seeing it in a Truckin' magazine years ago. We never get the good here

The 2-door tahoe in truckin a year or so ago was a chopped suburban and it had a 6.0 liter motor. That thing was really nice. Also, there are some subtle differences between the 02 and 04 wheels that would be hard to tell but I really doubt any real 04s with the original wheels have the same wheels as the 02s because they started using the newer wheels in 03. I have heard of people that work at the dealerships trading the wheels on their personal cars.
