Hey guys, i'm a younger cat just getting into the TB game. I've done a few things to my 02 LTZ (all red led dome lights, plasti-dipped grille, red bowtie, touchscreen radio, and painted my rims) but of course I'm looking for more. Next on the list is tint, marks 3" suspension, some 33's, res delete, volant intake, and a pcmforless tune. Is there any other things you guys could think that would be beneficial?

I've spent many nights/days reading through all of your build threads. Mostly day dreaming. Hopefully soon I'll be able to get my plans in motion

Understand your skills, plan a way to enhance them, know your accessible trails and friends, then you will be in striking distance of defining your mission. After that, the mod priorities will reveal themselves.

Check this out it may help. ;) I was rider on TECORE 9 (Trailblazer East Coast OffRoad Event), but even though I was it helped me define my mission.
