Sooo I'm kind of having a tough time choosing what color scheme I wanna go with seeing as every other car I've ever had has been black lol I do like all of the chrome that the denali has but even my painted tails are pushing it let alone putting black wheels or anything more on it, there would just be too much going on in my opinion with white, chrome, and black. What do you guys think? chrome and white or stormtrooper? And if stormtrooper how much chrome should I delete? All of it? Just handles and roof rack? Heres my truck right now

I think chrome flows well w the Denali in general. I say ditch the tinted tails first. Then red G5 tails w PTM matching appliques, and and an Esky third brake light PTM as well. Not a fan of the stormtrooper look.

i think it depends if you're gonna lift it or lower it. I think all that chrome on a lifted truck won't fit the theme. But chrome on a lowered one would. But if you go storm trooper Id delete all the chrome. I like to stick to 2 colors unless you can find some rims to match the amount of chrome and black you have on your truck.

I went for chrome and black on my old truck because i didn't wanna change the bumpers but was able to find the black and chrome rims that almost exactly explained the ratio of black to chrome

I think either would look good . My tahoe is storm trooper and escalade was kept chrome because I thought it should look a little classier.

Well to answer the other guys I don't think I'm going to lift it seeing as I want 24"s next summer. But thats what I'm not sure about because I like the classy look but I'm so used to black lol I might just vinyl wrap next summer :party52:

while I dont like the term stormtrooper I am a fan of star wars, but that is not the look I was going for per say. I loved my 04 black denali but a pain to keep clean so with my new truck I puposely sought out a white one but it did need some black ha ha. Besides I think the denali's have too much chrome. thoughts?

Got the headlights from carid.com. http://www.carid.com/2009-gmc-yukon...-crystal-headlights-90days-warr-35747018.html
They came with the blinker bulbs and side markers but no headlamp bulbs. But anyways they look almost identical to the orginal denali headlights, so no issues that I have noticed. I havent driven much at night so not even sure if they need to be adjusted. I will say though it took a few months to actually get them after being ordered. They kept back ordering them, took like two months.
