2000 NBS Tahoe Build..Clean and Simple

Well as some of you know Im picking up a NBS tahoe..My buddy picked it up for me today and im going home to get it on Friday..

Plans right now are..

Full custom tune by Justin at Blackbear
5% tint
Magnaflow exhaust
HIDS

Build a new box for my sub and throw that in for winter at least..

Want to do a 3/4 drop and some 24's..Its not to low for winter and if i lifted it I would lose MPG's..sometime though
Its easy enough to lift it back to stock height if needed(coils in back, keys in front)

Exterior
De-badge
Tint tails
Get some smooth pieces for above the tails and color match those
Its already colormatched from the factory..
Billet grille

Interior I dont know..its full leather already so thats nice..Probably a double din and some screens in the headrests

Thats all I got so far..heres a starter pic..I will have some more come this weekend.

Re: 2000 NBS Tahoe build up..should really keep it stock but that cant happen

Here are the newer pictures of it..Its been raining all day so I havent been able to clean it..
I bit the bullet today and finished all my current plans lol
-Bought 8k HIDS for the low beams
-Bought Magnaflow 14" muffler
-Bought LED daytime running lights that look like HIDS
-Bought pre-cut tint for it..5% for the front 2 and 20% for the rest..will make the whole truck 5%..dont like people being able to see me
-Set things up with Justin at BB for a tune..going with a generic tune for a month until the cables are available then he will do a full custom tune..cant wait until TM is gone..

Got it a little muddy today but didnt take pictures lol..

Re: 2000 NBS Tahoe build up..should really keep it stock but that cant happen

Thanks for the comments guys..Its so hard to not mod this thing as youve already noticed..its so comfortable and enjoyable to drive..cant wait for the tune!

Well I got bored today so I put the system in the Hoe..Took both optimas out of the truck, along with all the 0 gauge wire, amp, sub, box, deck and wiring..So basically the truck is gutted lol..Ill have to rig a battery up to drive the thing home at the end of this month..It hits so hard in the Hoe..much louder then the truck..Im going to carpet the box and take off the port thing on the front and just use this box until spring..Then from there Ill figure something else out.
Stay tuned this week for
5% tint
HIDS
HID colored running lights
Magnaflow muffler




Few more of the whip

Are you getting the X2020 silverstars or are you going to blind oncoming traffic with eBay HIDs?

Re: 2000 NBS Tahoe build up..should really keep it stock but that cant happen

Was gonna put them on today but I dont have lugs to fit them..the stockers are to big and i cant get the socket in there..

I want to get Silverstars but I cant swing that right now..It has a headlight out so I had to order some for now and got just regular HIDS..If I feel its bad enough I wont run them
