Post up a picture of an nnbs with a static drop. Post yours, your friends, your favorite or all of the above. Give the drop and tire size if you have it. Feel free to add before and after shots. And also what you used to drop it.
Would clean it up a lot if you would remove tail light covers, black sticker, and replace the stock tailgate cap with a color matched HD cap. Just my opinion
Edit:
Going back and looking, painting the whole rear bumper would match your front end and mirrors. I don't think it would look bad either way
Yeah that's why I was considering the full bumper because it would match the front end and based on the fact that everyone typically runs the color matched caps only, but it isn't a bad look either. I'll see, thank you all for the feedback haha, I'm always looking to do something to it.
The rear bumper end caps color matched would definitely clean up the rear. I had mine powder coated black to match and it completely tied the back end together
New to the site heres mine its currently a 4/7 waiting on my a arms from MMW and aslo to be tubbed then the plan is 7/10 oh the wheels are 24/26

For those of you who step-notched their truck, whats your review on them? How much does it help with bottoming out? Im getting a stepnotch done in this month, but my main intent with it is to prevent my truck from bottoming out, with 9" in the rear. Just needa know if it genuinely stops that issue, or makes it better atleast.
Are you sure you are bottoming out in the notch? Have you trimmed your bed brace above the rear end? Im at 9" in the rear of my ccsb with a bolt in notch and i still have a couple of inches of clearance in the notch. My pumkin was hitting the bed though before i trimmed it.
Sold my stock 17s and tires for $450 and picked up a set of oem caddy 22s for $500. Peeled the plasti dip and cleaned them up along with a new set of 265/35s.

WAY better color matched. Needs billet bow tie to set it off. Truck is looking sharp man. You'll stop missing the chrome once you get used to it. I like chrome but it can look cheap.
Edit: I'd also debadge. Would look super slick and everyone would still know it's a Silverado.
I dig the all red on the exterior (minus the rear bumper plastic and mirror plastic. I think those black would break things up a bit) but that's a lot of red on the inside. Black interior with red accents would really set it off IMO.
Love the color matched exterior, the brushed bowtie would look sweet. Think I would also accent the interior a bit, staring at reflection of the red dash in the windshield must drive you crazy
I did notice the reflection as soon as I brought the truck out into the sun haha damn. But thanks everyone for the feedback, I do personally like it, but I'll consider getting some accents done in as well.

are you serious? Yeah from the pictures i posted i barely have clearance between the axle and notch. I was thinking shocks would help with the bottoming out so i could save from having to stepnotch and cut my frame up.
