I want some tow mirrors, I'm sitting as tall as the Pickup's rollin around with 'em and they look fine height proportion, but no one w/ a lifted Hoe/Yuk have tow's of any kind. So I'll be rare as it is, but I really want the "New Hottness". Anybody have em or have any pics on the NBS SUV? I've seen ton's of pics of the older tow's on an NBS but not the new ones.

Ew. I prefer tow mirrors on tow pigs only (2500/3500) .
But it's your ride. I did see some on a lifted tahoe with a crazy wrap job to off set the distraction of the mirrors. Looked really good, so it should tie in pretty good with yours too
I'll see if I can find a pic. It was on a fb chevy page.

I passed an obs hoe with the non-chrome version of those mirrors the other day. I chuckled a little.

I agree with 05single here. Sure the 1/2 ton tahoe/yukon/suburbans can tow quite a bit, but those mirrors look out of place. I honestly don't even like them on 2500/3500 rigs either.

Not so much IMO. I always liked our NBS mirrors the best.

I have the stock tow mirrors on my 2500 sub and love them (had them on my old dually as well). Not a fan of the newer chrome ones, though I do like the extra led reverse light that they put in there, or I like the idea of it, have not seen one in person.

Anyone got color matched tow mirrors on their truck? Pics? I thought about getting so to see if they will hold up better to the subwoofer bass. The stock ones the glass just clips in and I glued them in there so they don't fall out but they are about to fall off again. Lol.

Edit: I googled some pics and they just look so HUGE I don't think I could put them on my truck

I got the tow mirrors on my lifted tahoe and I love the look, especially with the offset of the x14's...

Mine came, but I broke one before I could get more pics. I'm riding around with one & one now til the replacements come this week. Here's the only pic I got of them installed before I went to adjust one and the cussing started.

looks good on a lifted truck
I should have more pics today. One of the hinges broke on me when I was putting them on and the replacements should be here today. Also if everything works out good I may sell the old ones because they didn't want them back. Great deal if someone wants to fix the broken hinge on one.

How was the build quality? Was looking at a set for my 2010.
I've been riding around with one, it does vibrate/ wobble a little at highway speed because I leveled it, but it's only slightly more than the stockers did. Nothing that's a deal breaker for me. That's what caused the other hinge to break, I went a little to far and it made the hinge bind. But it seems solidly built. I saw that guy on YouTube with the white k1500 with the cracks in the arms and I don't see how that happens under normal use. I've got a feeling someone got hit in the head with it in a parking lot and had a little revenge.

I keep trying to figure out how to get a set of OEM power folds and make the bases work with a NNBS. If not - these are cheap enough that I wouldn't mind trying them out.
