No thanks. No offense but that looks bad in the daylight IMO. I don't see any way to make it look good. I'd like something that illuminates the perimeter but all the ones I've seen don't look right. Maybe I'm picky IDK.
This is the one from the website you listed in the video:

I agree I thought it was like a sealed lightbar until I looked closer

Yes i know what you're talking about. I know a guy who does what your want but he also wants $450 for his. If you want to pay that much for something with no warranty then go for it. I think i still have his contact information on Facebook. I'll dig it up

Ill Have to take some pictures when it warms up and upload. The emblem i have looks great in the daytime unlit. Trust me. If it looked bad unlit then i wouldnt have had it on my vehicle so long. Really depends on if a black emblem flows with your exterior color

I would make one myself before paying that but I’m over it. I don’t need one that bad lol.

Please don’t take this as an insult, but to me that looks terrible in the daylight. I could do a better job of gluing led strips to an emblem than they did. And they didn’t even start with a nice looking emblem, it’s way too skinny and doesn’t look right at all, plus you can see where the wiring enters and exits the letters. Cheesy IMO.
Well everyone stops me and says they like it even without it lit up. They love how large it is too. You would really have to be standing very close to the truck to see the wires. It fits my truck because it's black. Not sure how it will look with other colors. Black vehicles get away with allot more imperfections lol. I'm sure i could do a little better with another design grill, but this is the best grill to me. Plus everyone that See's my truck revs up their engine and do fly bys in jealousy because their children point and say "oooooohhhh daddy look at the lights on the truck" the kids on the street love it. Their reaction is priceless lol

I can’t seem to see anything but that crazy bug deflector.
Lol i think it will blend perfect with an chrome grill. Maybe later next year sometime. My truck looks mean and grabs alot of attention. Everyone that tries to race it loses. Im taking down everything except for mustangs and camaro and vette lol Everyone around where i stay tries to copycat me now. Everything except the grill and emblem. Ill be adding the dual exhaust bumper shortly with the corsa catback but ill be keeping the factory tips. Then after that LSA supercharger and cap the output around 450rwhp. My main project for this summer is permanently closing the rear liftgate glass somehow. Itll be my play vehicle after i purchase an newer body style yukon next year. Ill be adding led emblems to that too.

Just steal a tailgate from a hybrid they got a sealed glass. :D no power lift unless you get one from a escalade.
or you can order a sealed glass from safelight (you will have to remove the latch for the glass first)

I didnt want to seal the whole tailgate. Just the glass. So the glass is sealed on the hybrids?

yes it's a sealed glass :D it's light weight as well (aluminum tail gate)I also suggest you take the Dpliers, OEM LED tail lights and bumper cover as well from the donor car


GM was super committed to the security hole on the GMT900

Remember they make their bread and butter when you keep buying from them.

(replacement parts after they get stolen)
