Just curious how they matched the eyebrows? Wrap or sprayed or what. Do you know if those are separate pieces or are they part of the light assembly? Might be able to buy them from the RST truck also?
They are part of the headlight assembly. My entire front end was off, so I paid to have them sprayed. Black would be a no brainer to just wrap, but white was hard to find a wrap that matched. I wasn’t cheating out on this project for my wife.

Gotta say,I am pleased with myself for posting this.Have got some great info!! NOW,how do we get the chrome eyebrows handled, wrap? I notice some good looking ebay clear headlamps with black eye brows.. hmmm
You have options, but I would wrap if black is your color.

Love the color matched front end. I see other Tahoe/Suburban owners looking at it, when out and about. Few compliments.

Go ahead and order and let me know :D
Seem's a not brainer really. No idea how hard/easy to take off existing grill and replace this one though?
Eye brows would be easy to wrap.

LOL! :signs8:
I actually had it in my shopping cart and was about to checkout but then I remembered...........................I already have a black grill :dogpile:

I just called my local Chevy dealer and their collision center wants $115 to install the new grill which seems like a great price to me.
Is there parts number for the eyebrows above the headlight? so I can order these summit white as well instead of having the chrome one painted white?
thanks!

Whoever details your hoe knows what they are doing. Looks awesome.

So I went to my local Chevy dealership today....long story but I ended up walking out. Literally useless!
Inquired about getting the RST Grill and fitting it to my 15 Tahoe
Had no idea about an RST (even though they had a couple on the lot). Said it wouldn't fit anything but a 2018. Had no idea on cost to install as I'd have set an appointment with service (this was parts department). Had no idea what the part was. Said it would have to be color matched and sprayed when it arrived (after I told him the part number). AFTER he eventually found it, $700+ ...... I said it was closer to $400 on the official GM website......he said 'well that's online'
The level of zero interest and knowledge (this was 2 men), shocked me. This is no mum and pop joint either, this is giant super store. I walked out and told the GM that the parts department was atrocious.

/\ Drives me crazy. Have had this happen to me also at some dealers. Then have found others to be very helpful. There are dealers out there that do a big business in parts and accessories on line and they can discount because of the volume. Most could care less.

I agree. There are alot of tight turns to wrap. Had mine done 3 months ago and although they did a good job I can see some areas starting to lift now. The guy told be it would eventually peel. I paid $250 for the wrap including light eyebrows.

Is the grille one piece or two?

Thanks!
I have a 2017 Premier with the chrome grille. Thinking of changing it to the 2018 RST black grille. My understading is the 2018 grille will fit a 2017. Struggling with what to do with the chrome headlight eyebrows. My understanding is the eyebrows are part of the headlight assembly. Leave them chrome, paint black, vinyl? Thoughts and suggestions?
Thanks.

Sad. Day I picked up my 16 suburban I went to parts to inquire about the cost of the Borla exhaust. Guy at counter had no clue. Called someone else over. Neither had ever heard of Borla. They asked me to spell Borla. After 15 minutes of them going through books they took my cell and said they’d call me. They never called. I couldn’t believe it.

She is a beauty!!

Thank you. I really want to remove those side moldings on the doors, but this hoe is my daily driver and no matter where I park there's always someone that parks next to me that doesn't know how to open their door. These moldings have saved my door panels many times.
