I’ve been slowly building up my 2017 Colorado ZR2 and documenting the build on Instagram (@ZR2_Zamboni) - please feel free to like and follow.

NIce, color and truck.
Just got one too. Had to. My older rig blew a transmission.
I bought the WT trim for my build. Any pionts you have to offer?
What size tires are those?

I can recommend shock skids, skid plates and a regear to 4.10's. Then a level it, 33's, hidden winch, lighting....$$$$$$$$$
Only ran that indigo blue one model year - 2017. Current blue is a lighter metallic blue, not to my liking. Appreciate the reply!
Did install a hidden winch; no plans to level or regear at this time. Maybe when tires need changed.
Mine is a ZR2 Colorado so there are a few extras to being, most notably the front & rear eLockers, 31” DuraTracs, 2” lift over standard Colorado.
Advice? Make sure your build is for YOU - not everyone likes the same things. We are all different. Make the rig work for you (dedicated rig or daily driver; tent camping or trailer camper; tons of electronics or basic; short ventures or lengthy ones.
I think they made a similar color the first couple years that the Colorado was introduced. My father-in-law had a couple of those years.
Really sharp!

I like the plate over the facia, who makes that? I have one of the first MOI kits with a Zeon 12-s.

To clarify - they did run that color blue for standard Colorados 2015-2017, ZR2 edition only in 2017.
You can see details on my IG page @ZR2_Zamboni - to put it briefly: Midwest Fabrications hidden winch kit. Highly recommend them!!
Thanks. Thats custom made by me from 3/16” aluminum. Had to hide some front bumper license plate bracket holes AND wanted more protection for the bumper cover. Win-win!I like the plate over the facia, who makes that? I have one of the first MOI kits with a Zeon 12-s.
