Yes, Justin. We picked up the truck from the body shop last week! Looks brand new.

 

Here's a few pictures of the damage after the tree was removed...

Wow, that's pretty deep on the hood. Hope there wasn't any motor damage from that dent. Glad to hear you guys got the body work taken care of.

So did you seize the opportunity to upgrade sheet metal?

 

Rule of thumb: never replace, always upgrade.

Just how would one upgrade sheet metal? There is nothing wrong with the OE stuff. Unless they have plans for big rubber that is.

Aftermarket hood? If they want big rubber of course flares... There is always room for improvement.

The after market-replacement body panels for these trucks are not even close to being OEM quality. They are thinner and they don't fit together the same leaving uneven gaps. OEM is the way to go for replacement parts from their damage.

Same thing happened to me. I had an 02 ext cab 4x4 for six weeks and an oak tree totaled it. I solved the situation by buying an 06 lol.

Any updates for project Sierra?, like tune, CAI, exhaust, level kit? What's new?
