I'm absolutely loving it. Glad to see someone painting up a tahoe. I think they're the best looking trucks when everythings painted. Love the HD hood and painted lower valance combo. And the escalade rear pillars, SICK.

PS I can pshop up the boards, rack, and mirrors for you so you get an idea what it will look like before you do it.

I think I speak for everyone when I say, Keep the pics coming!

That looks great! I hope no one steps on the bumper though. I would be afraid of someone ruining it.

Bumper looks fresh!

Is it still textured? How glossy is it? Can you tell it is plastic? You got me really thinking about doing mine now.

Looks good, but why not color match the grill and bumpers and get rid of that chrome?? roof rack delete will look better than esky rack I think. Also Im just throwing this out there, but a all white colormatched with white wheels will look beautiful. Im actually planing a setup like that when I find my wife her white nbs tahoe. It will match my black one.

Paint is pretty thick actually i got 4 coats of white paint on it and 2 clear coats so i should be okay, last night i actually stand on top of the plastic all 260 lbs and it was okay

Paint is pretty glossy, painter put about 2 good coats on white and 1-2 light coats, Do it bro can't go wrong, i love the back end, im not to sure about my lower valance being painted, i might have to remove it.. still thinking about it

look good bro but next time u paint do the rear plate lights :hands:

Order a set of chrome they are on the way..

I actually dont have a problem with white and chrome i love it this is why i actually got chrome wheels instead of white and chrome. I dont really like the deleted racks for some reason it takes the contrast off the roof lines, I just think by painting my chrome bumpers grille shell might to much white.

Looking for a 3rd Esky break light.. then i will color match that..


thanks guys for all the compliments.

Shit lookin good bro!! Much better with that front bumper and rear bumper matched.

Lookin like me. :Handshake:

What do I gotta do on here to get some love for my color matching!!:shrug:
JK. LOL

I love my rear bumper being painted. It will hold up just fine if it's painted right. Had mine done for over a year now. I would also do the front valance. Most people miss that for some reason.

I got my running boards coming soon. Think I may paint them too. SHould look good. Almost thinkin about those RX350 boards tho. BOSS's shit looks tite with them. But stockers look good too. Hard decision

Very tite tho bro.

Very cool, PShopin those esky parts on there. Was gonna get the running boards, but glad I didn't know. Look to boxy on the Tahoe. IMO. Still not bad tho. The rails always look good tho.
BlackLac, was that 1st Pshop photo of his tahoe with white boards, just stock running boards matched?

Glad the pics helped. The Just white and chrome look is so great. I would have done it if the escalade came in the regular white instead of the pearl.
