Lowered my blacked out 2013 Tahoe LT today

Very nice! next for me would be no roof rack or a blacked out esky roof rack. Love the look man!

How do you cover those holes if you take the roof rack off?

How do you cover those holes if you take the roof rack off?

I found some flat push in hardware (almost like a screwcover) at homedepot and siliconed them in to be water tight. I then used touch up paint to match to paint them. If you're in a lifted truck, you can see these little "dots" where every screw was, but beyond that you cant really see them.

what kit did you use on the truck?

looks like 35.75 from ground to fenderlip in front and 36.5 rear

I've put it on with 3M tint with the help of a heat gun, local shops couldn't guarantee because of its shape so I did it myself, came out perfect. Taillights and 3rd break light.

I forgot what it's called but it's not a regular tint. I get melanoma on either L arm or top of my head (fair skin and bald head) once or twice a year. That's why I got it. The film is similar to sunglasses but it blocks UV at 70% not 99% as sunglasses do.

The salesman said the brand was Mugen. He used 2" shorter spindles in front & springs, spindles, shocks, extender for the rear. It's 2/3 drop.

Thank you for your suggestion!
When did you do that your Tahoe? Have you seen any leaking or rusting since? Since you've done that project, have you come up or have you seen any other alternative to cover for the holes that you think you should have done? Thanks again.

I'm thinking about the doing no roof rack, but the only thing stops me is that if I cover the holes, whatever I put on to cover the holes will be seen.
I don't want to put any other roof rack. Thanks.
