'07 Yukon XL - the makeover

[hbr]

I've had the Yukon since new and love this truck. I did a few things when I first got it, Denali grille, esky rack, nav unit with a lockpick, 2300K HID fogs and some factory 20s.

I feel bad I've neglected her for a couple years and think she is due a makeover.

I started with wrapping the ugly wood trim with some carbon 3M vinyl (got that idea from this board......thanks). It turned out better than I imagined.



I took the mouldings off the other day also (no pics.....but get an eraser wheel LOL). I am thinking I may add the LTZs with the chrome back on her, just want to see how she turns out.

I put a new grille on today. It is the look I was wanting, but quality is lacking and I'm sure it is $180 I'll be throwing away before long.




I have a few more mods coming over the next month or so, a 2/3 drop coming from Tony, some custom forged 22s and retrofit HIDs, along with replacing the ugly boards with something else.

I'll update the progress here.......

Where are you getting your retrofit HIDs??? Any pics of what this will look like on the Yukons?

Lookin good! Post more pics especially of the exterior! Retrofit projectors with Hid's would be nice. Also the oem Denali grille looks like its way better quality than that new grill you got IMO :/

Nice beginning mods. theretrofitsource.com website has some retrofitted yukon headlights if u want to see the outcome of them.

The retrofits will be from http://blackflamecustoms.com. I was concerned about adjustability but these retain factory adjustments.


Felix...........definitely agree on the grill. Looking for a replacement already.

Hoping that Tony ships the kit soon......would like to get her dropped before the wheels get done.

Ah nice! Since I don't live anywhere near any custom headlight shops, that's where I'll be getting mine from too for my avalanche! It looks so awesome from the pics on their website. Be sure to post pics when you get em in

Couple full body shots, will be good reference prior to lowering and wheels. Still haven't decided on what boards if any..............





The wheels are 2 weeks out. Color matched faces and barrels, chrome lip.
