Well, time for a new back bumper. My Suburban got hit by an Ambulance at work today, funny part is I work as a Paramedic and it was a fellow crew who did it but is denying it.

That sux. Truck still looks good tho. Can't wait to see it dropped some. Looks great without the flares and mouldings.

Thank you, I'm really considering doing a Escalade Platinum back bumper with G5 tail lights and appliqués since my companies insurance is paying for the damage and it's my buddies shop doing the work :deal:

Getting the exhaust routed is no biggie. Down side is can't run a spare with those bumpers

I've seen it done with dual exhaust and a spare tire but not the best idea as I'd be worried if the tire would get hot from the exhaust. I have AAA and a million tire places near me so no biggie if I have no spare. If traveling long distance, id just throw it in the trunk, lol.

Who did the write up on swapping a caddy bumper and exhaust onto a tahoe or yukon ?
I remember seeing it around 2 years ago

Damn, that sucks. 2 years ago some guy grazed mine, insurance called for a new one. His insurer handed me a check for about 3600 ....3000 for me...600 for gm bumper and paint, i still have the old one, very easy to swap

I think it was close to 2000....oh well, 3600 woulda been nice.....lol

Picked these up from my Brother as a trade, he REALLY wanted my Texans for his truck. Figure they'd look nice for now....
