Well this just happened:

3C9B9877-2EEE-4BAC-BC6D-AEBFDBB47AF4_zpsagsurl0z.jpg


Here's the sad part. All the mods are ordered for it. Lol. Leveling kit up front with factory rep 22's like 08grey and Nitto Terra Grappler G2 285/45/22. Pioneer AVH4100NEX rear cam and all accessories ordered. New head lights and clear corners. New led tails. New street scene honey bee style grille. Black vinyl going on bow ties. Torn between the NNBS LTZ Z71 roof rack with chrome side rails or esky roof rack. More pics to come stay tuned!

Do the NNBS LTZ Z71 roof rack with chrome side rails

I tried to find one to no avail. I saw a seller on eBay with a mint Esky third brake light and roof rack. Did make offer and both and he accepted. Also got the esky rear vent appliqués. All of it is WDT though, gotta get it all CM summit white.

Meh. Still good. The LTZ one is hard to get/find which makes it unique.

What's different between the LTZ and Escalade roof racks?

The LTZ roof rack on the 2006 was a one year one of a kind creation of the Z71 rack but with chrome side rails. It was also black instead of dark gray.

Me too, nbs tahoes are my favorite body style of all the chevys, throw that HD hood on and its looks mean as hell. Good looking hoe btw looking forward to the mods.

Same here. I've had the 01 Tahoe and a **** ton of GMT900's and I always keep thinking about how sick the 03-06 leather interior is on the NBS especially the Z71's. My 01 Z71 was so awesome and I regret ever selling it. Ever since I always kind of eyed them. Also when I had mine I envied the 03-06 models for the double din dash, newer console area and center console, steering wheel controls, and better leather seats. Even the buttons and doors are newer then the 00-02 NBS models. A buddy got one new in 2005 pretty much exact model of what I got and I've always been in love with it. I've owned the NBS, NNBS, and K2XX and nothing compares to the NBS seats.

Jonah I agree the quality from NBS to NNBS downgraded. I thought the K2XX was a step up although I've read a lot of threads where people think it's trash and is continuing to trend worse and worse.

Another side note about the seats... on eBay the NBS leather seats cost more than the NNBS ones. Not sure if it's more rare or maybe because it's better quality and is way better in terms of comfort?

Here's a pic of the rims. Those aren't the tires in that same pic. I took a screenshot of the tire and info. Went with 285/45/22 vs 305/40/22 because I feel that it's wide enough and I'd much rather have an extra bit of sidewall.
