I don't mind. I bought the grille, bumper, smooth vents all from StylinTrucks.com. The total after shipping came to - $1000

The hood I got off of Craigslist for $300.

The cost of paint and installation came to $1800. This includes the paint and fitment of everything as well as door handles from GM. The mirrors were just painted so they are also included in that price.

Cost after everything installed $3100. Fortunately I only had to come a little bit out of pocket since I sold my wheels from my last car for $1600 and got about $1200 over what I owed for my car.

Thanks guys.. yeah I really am digging the red more and more. I was not even considering red when I first began Tahoe shopping. I was looking for either a white or a black one. Stumbled onto this one on Craigslist and it was in the best shape, the lowest miles, and still a great price. Took it home and am loving my choice more and more.

Yeah definitely on my list. I'm torn on what's next though. After putting in the AEM Brute Force I am dying to get exhaust. However, after getting all of this put on I really want to drop it too. Hell, I really want to do a lot to it. I'm freaking addicting to mods at this point. They are becoming like crack for me. I'm just looking for my next fix and trying to find the cash to get my next mod lol.

Aha! I was visiting my parents when I took that picture the day I bought my Tahoe because my family was in town from Nevada. So that is my Tahoe in front, my brothers Silverado behind it, and the maroon Suburban belongs to my uncle who was visiting. What can I say, we are a GM family.

Looks good dude! Spindles and 4" coils would really set it off :cheers:

My thoughts exactly. That way, if you wanted to lower the front a little more, all you'd have to do is get keys. And if you do the rear the right way, just swap out the 4" coils for 5"

Only thing I would change is paint the ducts on the ss bumper another color.

I hate to criticize so quickly but its contructive criticism.... all you need now is winted tindows (yes backwards on purpose)

Tahoe looks good man. Glad to see you waited and did everything at once. I know it's hard, but I'm sure it paid off when you went to go pick it up from the paint shop.
