Local body shop paint matched the grille surround and emblem. Putco Boss black grille insert. Truckgoodies gloss black emblem insert. Slowly deleting the chrome on this truck

Nice looking truck. I'm really thinking about buying those OEM wheels (replicas) online but had a question for you. They are 22x9" wheels, I don't think your tire size (305/45r22) meets the minimum wheel width requirements. Per most manufactures they recommend a 9.5" minimum wheel width for those. I do like how beefy they look, any issues with running them on a 9"? Can't see from your pictures if it bulges out from the wheel that much?

I’ve got about 11k miles on this trailer. My setup is about 5,200 lbs (the trailer is about 1,800 lbs). Loaded properly, you won’t know it’s there. Couple inches this way or that, and you feel your load working against you, so I recommend finding your specific load’s “happy place” on the trailer before the long haul. I also have a camaro and have towed it many times. You shouldn’t have any concerns. And yes, hung out with Mike and Shane at the Inshane tent a bit. Shane did some custom work for a buddy’s C8 recently.
Great to know, and appreciate the advice about finding the “happy place” for my Camaro on the trailer. That’ll be very important for 3000 miles haha
And that’s pretty cool about Mike and Shane.

No issues as far as wheel width goes. Minor trimming required with 1.5" level. I wouldn't worry much about the half inch difference.

What are you guys cleaning the "stainless" part of the roof rack on the Denali? Mine is looking very splotchy
Just made a thread about this a few months ago. Someone recommended bon ami cleanser….. I can’t exactly vouch for it because I get no time to hang out with my truck :(

I hope everyone had a nice holiday weekend. Nice to have been off this weekend off for a change.

We spent some of today touching up the Escalade grill and lower pieces. The touch ups were long overdue as the grill and lower pieces were peppered with chips caused by road debris, rocks etc. Got it looking right again.

^^^ Yes sir, I know what you mean. I like the color matched look. I've done that to a few of the rides. Looks great but you have to touch the parts up as a result of road trips and daily driving. Thanks.

Installed (literally 2 bolts) a console safe. This is from Lock'er Down.

Very impressed with the fit and finish of this console. Fits extremely snug and you'd think it's factory.
Highly recommend for anyone who wants to be able to lock things in their truck securely/safely.

Sideways/diagonally it miiight be able to haha. I have a S&W500 model 163501 with a 8.38" barrel that I'll test fit for you some time.

I also have 8.38 version with removable muzzle brake. I was thinkin getting S&W500 3.5" or 4" for CC. 8.38" is hard to CC even for 6.6" 300lbs guy lol. I tried belt and shoulder, its alot to carry around

Yeah... NOT ME... I don't need any help with my pants going down faster with that much weight on the hip... I stick to my Sig P365 for every day, Glock 36 for when wearing a jacket... Too damn hot down here 90% of the year to try to wear more clothes to try not to print...

Another Corvette show, this time in Effingham IL. Had a great time. Driving home today, back to reality. Gotta love the Tahoe. Comfortable and ready always
