Hard to miss the old one with that thing in the driveway, nice choice felix!

Thanks Hammer! Yea mine was definitely one of a kind in my area so I definitely miss it!! I however do not miss my interior as it literally as the interior of the esky is just wayyyyyy cleaner... i'm still obsessed with the gauge cluster!!!

Felix, that Escalade looks amazing. Nice deal too, and really makes me want to put those rims on my truck. I just bought the WeatherTech Liners for my Tahoe too. Love them.

order the colored center caps for it.

I don't know for some reason I like it all chrome... I feel that one day though, I will eventually get bored with them, and I will order the colored center caps just to "change it up". The rear applique above the license plate is slightly worn so I need to replace that. the back is fully de-badged (no flex fuel symbo/escalade letters) compliments of the first owner. I personally wouldn't have done it but it doesn't look bad.

Thanks! Yea I think I got a real good deal. It was amazing compared to everything else around and it as a bonus it was black on black. I had them in my tahoe and loved em so I'm getting them again. Definitely preserves the carpet.

That esky will look tight with a Kon appliqué in back IMO the rear appliqué on the esky is too gaudy and about the only thing I don't like about them

Esky looks good Felix! I have to admit i'm a little jealous

I actually brought that up to the GF and she shot it down : /
It doesn't look bad de-badged though.

it's easier to ask forgiveness than to seek permission

Yeah half the stuff I buy I don't bother telling the wife. I was just out the other weekend at the Range Rover dealership looking at Ranges for her and the Cadillac dealer was right next door and I told her I needed a part for the Esky roof rack. She said you have a Esky roof rack on? Yup and Esky tails and Esky 3rd brake lights. She was ok when did you put them on. A while ago.

 

[07Burb]

On big stuff like that (I can't install anything that lasts more than a couple of hours without her knowing) if I get it I have to "hide" it in the garage somewhere for a while then I will just install it one day and she'll ask "Where did that come from?" and I'll say "I don't remember I've had it for a while and just never got around to putting it on." To this she normally just shrugs and doesn't have much else to say since it's not like I bought it recently so therefore doesn't quite affect her as much somehow

F***! I wish you would've told me that great quote before I asked her lol.

Just get it and explain to her you don't remember that convo and that you musta actually been asleep when the conversation happened...

HA!!! That is f'n awesome... yea like the 24" to 26" wheel upgrade of the same exact wheels? LOL... Unfortunately my girlfriend has a keen eye and would realize that on the spot.

She messaged me earlier saying that she feels weird driving it around with no mods lol... she then proceeded to tell me that if I really wanted to do the Esky platinum fascia/front end upgrade, that I should do it! That kind of excited me but I don't know if I want to dive into a 2500 in parts before labor mod as my first mod. Looks like I really did find the right girl

hahah burb that is an awesome excuse that i've used one too many times unfortunately!!!

I wish!!!! Those would be a bit tougher. She'd definitely notice those just sitting over in the corner along with the lighter bank account!!

I proposed both the 2" rear drop and the 1" ReadyLift up front and she said HELL NO to both and that I "better not touch the suspension"... I don't know why I guess she just fears it'll F up the ride.
