Well...it's really a 2013 Tahoe LT. I put Eibach 2" lowering springs on the back to even it out, PPV 265/60R17s on Black Rock 937s. I tinted the front windows to match the back, a K&N cold air intake, and a Westin push-bar. On the inside I added a Kenwood DNX 570 in dash navigator, RF amp, two Kenwood 10" subs, and a LTZ cup holder. I topped it off with blacked out bow ties.

[/QUOTE]Remove the rack. Imo[/QUOTE]

I definitely thought of doing that. Does it leave holes in the roof? If so...what do you use to plug them?

Well...I took the roof rack off tonight. Needless to say...it's never going back on. It looks great...thanks for the advice. I simply cut the factory bolts that held the rack on in half and reinstalled them. I waxed the roof while I was up there...it needed it badly. I'm not looking to pull anyone over...but hopefully it will make people get out of the fast lane when I am behind them!

Looking good dude. I'm getting that same push bumper shortly, along with some 17" matte black MB Razors. One of my co-workers owns the company that builds all of our patrol cars and he's giving me a pair of Unity spotlights for free...I just need to grow the balls to cut into my A-pillars to install them.

Edit: How much did those 937s cost you?

I'd love to have a spotlight...but like you I would hesitate to cut into the A pillars. When installing the push bar, the directions tell you to cut out spots in the bumper shell for upper supports...I opted out of that. I may find a couple of LED fog lamps to mount to the push bar if I can find some good ones that don't cost $100 a piece. I have owned 5 Escalades before this Tahoe...can't say I had this much fun modding any of them!

Hey just saw this.

You welcome.

Way to go. :D

On mine I took the rack off and got set screws from Lowes. I then dipped them in clear silicone and put them into the holes. On top of that I put black moulding on. I have some pictures in my build thread.

Post some new pictures up. :)

I paid $112.00 a piece from Tire Rack.

I think those wheels would look sick in a 20/22......... if they made them. Of course that throws the cop look....... but still

Yeah...my wife hates the wheels...no matter how much I try to explain the look I am going for. She's just used to the 22"+ wheels I have had on the Escalade's I have owned. Of course...she doesn't understand why I want black wheels on the new Z06 either...but whatever.
