Has any one given any thought to or found out if these parts will be available, to purchase. Such as color matched window belt trim, brembo brakes, color matched grill.

I'm sure they will be obtainable at some point.

Brakes can already be purchased I believe. I've seen them on my dealers accessory page.

How about a tungsten grill and headlight surround? Wonder what that would set me back?

The grill will probably be a few hundred at least. We'll see what the other pieces come in at in a few months I'm sure.

I already have the Brembo brake kit, which is just the front only, waiting on some red powder coated rear calipers to come in probably this week before I install. But I'm really interested in the color matched grill when they become available!

I wonder if the grills sold through the Chevy parts departments will be paint to match rather than prepainted from GM?

I would think at least a few hundred for the grille and maybe the same for the window trim. I'm taking my Wife's Tahoe tomorrow a body shop I've used in the past to see what they'll charge me to color match my grilled and paint the insert gloss black. I had these guys color match the chrome bumpers and grille on my Ram and the job outstanding.

Good luck with the window belt trim my painter wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. He said most of the time they break while trying to remove then there is a rubber trim they have to mask off.

I've seen quite a few escalades at a Cadillac dealership in Santa Monica that are completely blacked out I need to stop by and see if there factory parts or something there paint shop did.

Most likely it's something their paint shop did or they had someone wrap it for them.

Im not painting the window trim. I plan on having that wrapped on Friday. I'll post pics if they're able to get it done. Haven't received a quote yet for coloring matching the grill.

I just dropped it off to have a clear bra installed and they're doing the window trim wrapped in gloss black. I'll post some pics when I pick it up.

I'm eagerly waiting availability of the 18 Denali grille to swap mine out.

First post, considering pulling the trigger on a new Tahoe Premier.....with 0% it's pretty attractive right now but I love the idea of getting a 6.2 in the RST. You guys have any idea what the actual price out the door is going to be on the RST when they get here? Was told MSRP of near 80, will it get discounted at all or not for a while? If that is the case will just go Premier right now.

Good question, I am thinking the base price of a Premier plus another $10k.

Whatever it is, I'm not buying new, will buy pre-owned to not loose so much just driving off the lot.

Can you post a pic of these brakes? I'm trying to find out which caliper family of brembo it uses. Gmc/Chevy won't say and brembo says they are not allowed to give out the info.

Some of the brembo calipers are junk, some are awesome. Before I drop $2500 I want to know I'm not getting a flexing hunk of crap

Any update on the window trim wrap?

No. It wasn't done. When I went to pick the truck up the guy who did the clear bra said the guy who does the wraps had to leave and goto Miami and didn't make it back in time. So still rocking that chrome

I like this package a lot, while its not an all out crazy HP package especially for the suburban, gives more option as far as styling
