Update:: Today is wheel and tire day. I ordered a set with 0 offset. if math serves i will just kiss the slider or maybe have to add a small spacer. (pics later this afternoon). However, in preparation, my buddy and I spent Saturday on the NV.. Fully dynamat in every door and interior panel ( what a difference in road noise/wind noise that made) Plasti Dipped ( black) the grille, bumpers, mirrors, emblems. all chrome gone/dipped Next week is audio and video.... 4 screens, head unit, upgrade the backup camera and put in a forward facing camera as well. probably upgrading speakers and adding a sub at some point too.. I know.. Pics pics pics.... Don't worry, there will be pictures soon..

I just blacked out everthing chrome on my nv.. mirrors, emblems, grille, bumpers... everything... Ive dipped a bunch of cars before, own a couple spray guns etc.. for this i just used spray cans. dip holds up great and is very forgiving to work with. try it. you really can't make any irreversible mistakes. watch a few videos and roll

I plasti dipped my bumpers, grill, mirrors, door handles, and emblems.. matching wheels on the way.. looks great and will hold up fine ( ive worked with plasti dip alot) the handles wont stay so I may remove to spray ( dip ) the back/inside of the handles to get rid of the edge. because you can't spray the underside of the handle while its on the vehicle, it leaves a lip that will roll with lots of hands on it... I used 4.5 cans of black plasti dip. ( about 6 coats) and 3 cans of clear glossifier about 3-4 coats. 6$ for each can so about $50

just ordered my wheels and tires.... pics coming next week i think. Also installing new head unit, 4 screens, reverse camera upgrade, and a front camera as well... and brake controller for now... eventually, air bags, bull bar, running boards/steps and safari style rack... stay tuned
