    Anyone have pictures of their blacked out rides?

    Not totally blacked out but getting there...

    The OFFICIAL 2015 Tahoe unveiling thread

    I was really disappointed with the new Tahoe...until I saw the pics of the black LTZ. Color match the bowties and, at very least, the inside grill area...really need to see one in person now.

    Rough engine idle

    Had the same thing happening in my 2011 Sierra. Ended up being a bad spark plug (I did get e cel light on, though, after a couple weeks of this happening). They also did a flush and now seems to run perfectly. GM doesn't recommend changing plugs until 120,000km...mine only had...

    Sorry...the outside door moldings.^^^ Wrap is holding up nicely so far on the interior pieces.

    Covering the woodgrain...opinions needed

    Little off topic but I had to remove the door moldings since 2 of the 4 were starting to peel back. I was a bit hesitant but really like how it looks now...sorry for the crappy cell phone pic...

    Yup that's the same product I used...very user friendly.

    That would be more than enough. It is a bit easier if you get a vehicle wrap type of vinyl...something with air release makes the job 10x easier.

    Covering the woodgrain...opinions needed

    I just very carefully pried each piece off with a very small flatbladed screwdriver. Just take your time and be patient. The piece around the radio was the toughest imo and seemed very flimsy compared to the rest. Here is a link that should help you out...

    Covering the woodgrain...opinions needed

    For the few dollars of vinyl (actual free as my supplier sent me a sample sheet) and a couple hours of my time it took, I am more than happy with the end result. I am now looking at doing a few other vehicles for customers of mine (I own and run my own tinting business). Just throwing this out...

    Covering the woodgrain...opinions needed

    Just a couple cell phone pics I took this morning but it gets the idea across. I will take some nice pics with the DSRL next week after it is detailed. The first pic isn't mine but is exactly what it looked like before wrapping the woodgrain and also swapping out the useless LTZ middle...

    Covering the woodgrain...opinions needed

    Piece of cake. Thanks to a couple old posts I found on TYF, I had the woodgrain parts pulled off, cleaned and wrapped with 3M Scotchprint Matte Black vinyl in about 2 hours. Waiting to get the entire interior detailed next week before I take some pics. Definitely gets 2 thumbs up with no...

    Covering the woodgrain...opinions needed

    Hey guys. Just ordered the LT style center console for the wife's Tahoe and now I need to figure out what to go with the woodgrain. Being that it is black on black, I am leaning towards either a matte black (which I have in a 3m scotchprint vehicle wrap material) or a metallic black brushed or...

    Denali cupholder to SLT cupholder (center console)

    Does anyone have the LT setup that they would like to part with...or trade for the LTZ style? It has been one thing I have hated in the wife's Tahoe LTZ from day one.

    Black Bowties

    Another option is to cover them with vinyl. Easy to do your self with some patience, a hot air gun and a knife. Nice thing is it is easily removed if need be.
