Looks good. Nice buy. I need one of those too. Mine doesn't clip on all the way and comes loose. The cheapest I found it for a Denali was $100. I think the Tahoe and Denali covers are different. But it doesn't bother me enough to buy it yet. I ended up just taking it off. I'd rather spend that money on other mods but I'll probably end up doing it one day unless I can have mine repaired somehow.

The denalis bumper are different than the regular tahoe/yukon bumper cover. The Denalis look way better IMO.

My truck is black too and I guess that is why it doesnt bother me having the receiver showing.

I guess thats why I cant justify spending $80 on one. Do they secure in any way or can someone just come along and steal it?

Someone can easily steal it. if you know how to get it off. 2 plugs in the bottom, slide to the right, pull off

They look good!
I went with the same one when I got a hitch cover, then went with a Street Scene one because I did not like it after a while!

you mount a black plastic bracket to to the bumper just above your hitch, then 2 holes to the bottom of the bumper. It comes with instructions and a template.


Here's the upper bracket...

That's because your black was offered on 09+. These only come in the 09+ colors, so if someone wants them for the 07-08, it's a good possibility they will have to get it painted. I did. It was like $50
