Been a hot minute. Let’s start back on with some more lighting candy
Alpharex full led headlights , triple projectors with sequential strips. 100% plug n play with zero modifications needed.
I was one of the few who pre ordered these before they were even released. So I waited about two months...
I’ve found nothing useful in this thread, just a bunch of gibberish and nonsense with a little hanky-panky
Ok a lot of hanky-panky
Ok it’s all hanky-panky
came in sets of 3 so naturally I had to make the headlight switch match
That’s it for chrome on the front dash area. Next will be doors starting with Denali handles then go from there. I hate chrome when it comes to the exterior, but on the interior it’s very acceptable.
Seen a Fb post where a dude added these to his hvac controls and I was immediately sold. The light up circles match my deck volume knob which is also a light up circle. They’re a little bigger but sit nicely on the unit.
Life in AZ is very different than AK, even vegas and Cali. It’s like another planet here. I’m realizing the constant time and effort of upkeep that needs to be put into your vehicle while living here. Playing a round of golf around 1pm when it’s 98-102 out is fun tho .
Well I never liked anything up there that didn’t belong there. People put switches and lights but I’ll most likely leave as is. I know it’s a pointless cubby but it’s simple and looks oem. Same as when I added a cubby in place of the rear entertainment center in the Tahoe. Just a cubby , that’s...
Trying different ideas for turn signals. I don’t want typical chrome with glare in every direction. I don’t want blacked out, don’t want strips or individual leds. Using a frosted film I wanted a solid and even glow. This sorta did the trick but as @Thatsquishykid717 pointed out , they look like...
Grabbed a set of express van hvac knobs to retrofit onto my hvac. Figured the best and easiest way to mod them to fit. Shaved the white indicator part so it’s clear , that way whatever led backlighting there is it will shine through. Even though my backlighting is white anyway the clear version...
Tried a couple looks I had in my head using chrome wrap. Wasn’t feeling the large piece wrapped so I mimicked the Escalade shifter and wrapped just the tip , giggity. Poor mama esky shifter. Looks pretty good from afar but up close you notice the orange peel texture from the plastic. I think...
What I didn’t like is that the aftermarket led fog housings only came in black , which I get cause that’s the style. But a chrome option would be nice. So I wrapped the housing cover with chrome. Not super happy how it turned out , chrome wrap is less forgiving than regular wrap with less...
Plastidipped the overhead center console. One of the next mods will be a black suede headliner. One of just a few mods I never got around to on the Tahoe. Really wanted to reupholster the headliner in the Tahoe black.
Seen some corrosion on the plate lights . Figure I’d replace them with new housings, they’re cheap anyway. Got bored and plastidipped the dome light housings and wired in the leds from the plate lights. Crazy bright , match the built in led door lights now lol.
Redid the airbag cover to something different than what anyone else has. Fine tip chrome marker for the outline then black paint marker for the inner part.
Swapped out the shifter boot. New boot doesn’t like the nnbs shifter , didn’t have any issues in the Tahoe so I’m not sure what the deal is.
Tired of the bumper sag. Jack and a 2x4 does the trick….for now. It was only sagging maybe at most half an inch at the end. But enough for guys like us to bother. Maybe went up slightly a little too much but maybe after a few miles it’ll settle down a bit, either way it’s way better. Took all of...
That’s more common I see when people paint the flares on a two tone. Idk it’s far down my list depending on how I eventually colormatch this thing so for now they’ll just stay oem.
Psshhh I was never jealous , maybe a little obsessed and his Tahoe was the only sole motivational blueprint for my build. Maybe I would sit in bed for hours looking at his Tahoe, caressing the screen ever so gently to the point that it made my gf uncomfortable. But I was never jealous
