It is clean without for sure, but IMO it just adds that little extra subtle finish to the top.

A sharp detail, like the icing on the cake tying in the rest of the CM body parts,
running boards and Denali cladding. That CM rack is going to look sweet.

I'm excited to see how that rack turns out. Reason I haven't put mine on is because I refuse to have any chrome on my tahoe lol. So I'm still waiting on a decision for vinyl wrap or paint, I'm thinking wrap so later if I need to I can remove it and reveal the chrome again for resale..
Ours look good without the rack too but it's nice to have that option for storage on long trips.
In the end anything is better than the basic factory tahoe/yukon rack

We'll find out tomorrow; the painting will be done and I'm supposed to pick my truck up in the afternoon. It's been at the painter since yesterday morning. Unfortunately I'll also find out what the bill is!

Rig looks great. IMO cowl goods are the only way to go on a Denali.

Got the Esky rack installed. Took me awhile- I had to figure out how to get the end caps to snap on right with no gaps. There was an adjustment that had to be made before I started attaching it to the truck. Of course I didn't figure that out until I already had it all attached. Anyway, colormatched is the way to go for sure.

A few more shots of the paint. He repaired and repainted my license plate holder too, along with the complete front bumper and he blended and repaired the paint on both front fenders. there's one spot left that he found, and I had forgot about- a scrape on the rear bumper that he is going to take care of one day when I stop by. That will do it for paint, it will be pretty much flawless at that point.
