What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

[MassHoe04]

A massive goose decided I wasn't done refinishing bodywork on my Tahoe and ended it's life taking a header into my passenger front door. Even tried to slow down and miss the damn thing...

Luckily I carry zero comprehensive on my insurance so I may get it fixed for nothing.

Love those rims! Great color for the black truck.

Had to go to the orifice. Zero stars. Do not recommend.

Then went to a couple of local junkyards but there was nothing worth getting. Mostly picked over pretty good. I did grab a ground bolt to be able to attach my e-fan conversion ground in the correct spot on the right side frame.

Looks like I’ll need to venture further to other yards.

Prepped dash for paint.

Scotchbrite pads and denatured alcohol will remove all that gold stuff.

Thanks, I used rubbing alcohol which took most of the old stuff right off but wouldn't get those small spots. I'll be scuffing today so hopefully that will just pull it right off. I got the gray scotch Brite based on reading around here. Are the green ones too rough?

The color is actually Spiral Gray, I wish it were black sometimes though! Thanks for the compliment!

IDK, I use red and grey.

It’s not an exact match but it was the closest to factory I could find at the time

As long as you're happy that's all that matters. Looks good. Does it have a course/rough texture to it? I THINK the GM color is Medium/Dark Pewter.

looks good. On my 02 Denali, I stripped everything including the fake wood grain and painted it in the color of my choice, a dark metallic. I did all the dash, console and door switch panels.

Seems like forever since I did it last with weather and life, but finally gave her a good washing.

It has a smooth texture.

That looks really good. Your tape job is pretty clean! I ended up going with these as adhesion and color. It is pretty close and added a nice low key shine.

Finished up a few pieces. I think it turned out pretty good for a first try. I did end up scuffing one spot too much which shows in the right light, but overall, quite an improvement.
