Hook-Up on OEM GM Parts

[baggedlvintegra]

I'm looking to potentially do a Platinum Escalade front conversion on my Base Escalade and was just curious if anybody had a hookup on OEM GM parts. I'm going to need a few onesy twosey parts and wanted to see if maybe somebody on the forums could help out.

Keep us updated Josh. I was looking to do this conversion but don't have $2-3k just laying around :/

It can be done for WAY less! I got mine for $800 and it was complete with cover, absorber / foam support, grill, fog lights and corner braces, plus its a Premium Edition so the grills are paint matched as well! The place I got it from had a bunch of platinum factory take offs and had EXCELLENT customer service. If your serious about doing this, give Debbie at Northlake Auto Recyclers @ 877-217-8181 a call, tell her Josh who just bought the diamond white bumper assembly referred you so she kind of knows what you're after.

Look at it this way

$800 Front End
~$200 Shipping
~$100 Misc Parts for Install
$1100
- $500-600 Sell Old Front End on Craiglist
Only about $500 out on the whole swap!!!!

Then you need the headlights...

Thanks for the info man!! I wonder if they have any black premium take-offs...

@Steve- the platinum lights aren't mandatory. The factory normal Esky lights fit just fine.

According to their website / www.car-parts.com they have several in stock in Black and/or Carbon

No excuses now!

Those say '09? The premiums didn't start coming with color matched platinum front ends until '12...

I was suprised by this as well. I think they generically list them as 09's because the one I called about from that listing said 09 however the pics I was sent of the actual bumper are indeed premium painted so it has to be 2012+

Man, tempting me to do this... I love how the platinums look in black....

$800... seriously. get used.

I'm trying I can't find them used near me, there's a few on CL bit the shipping kills it. I think you can get them new around $550 if you have a hook up at the dealer
