My 2009 build

[MightyThor]

I don't believe I have introduced my self anywhere. but here is my 2009 HyHoe I bought recently. the day I bought it.

 

[MightyThor]

then a couple of weeks later this happened as i was driving down the free way. I lost vision and hit a wall in the attempt to get out of traffic.

As I didn't like the wheels that came on it I decided to upgrade all 4. Had the body shop leave the hybrid decalls of the fenders, removed the one on the tailgate and the square gm badge. Also was able to have them put on Black Bowties. And remove the peeling door moldings. This is how she sits currently. I will take some better pictures later. future changes. are different tail lights. Im looking for some that are all LED. Also would like to put Projectors and HID in the front, Currently have LED Driving lights but want to change all interior and exterior lights to LED. I would also like to level it and possibly lift itto the height of the the standard tahoe. I have also added a wireless charging coil to the lid of the center console and a Ram mount to the rear view mirror i plan on adding a wireless charging coil to this mount as well. as will as a isimple bluetooth adaptor for streaming music. Oh and of course darker tint all the way around.

 

[MightyThor]

does anyone have any other ideas for me?

Solid man. My hybrid is coming across the country right now. Silver. I hate silver. Black is my favorite.

I would work on a blackout look personally. Tinted tail lights, work on finding some blackout headlight housings (not as easy as baking it sadly)

Those wheels look really nice and clean on there man. Nice to see you did leave the hybrid badge, there was a long discussion on how that is helpful in case of an emergency or fire. Truck looks clean, definitely could use some tint, and I would debug the tahoe on the doors too. Also check out deleting your resonator, and getting a nice tip. The little things will really set it off.

My current plans are to tint all the window behind the front doors to 5% and tint front windows as dark as possible with a waiver form due to eye sensitivity I am looking to do a projector headlight retro fit, at the same time ill black out the chrome in the headlights. I have thought about tinting the tail lights and the third eye. I may do a full led conversion on the tails if i can find one i like. I want to do a light tint on the Hybrid trim badge so the circuitry print is still visible but the green is not. I actually like the tahoe badging. though i want to get them painted a gun metal grey. I also plan on doing a leveling kit on it. as for the resonator that thing is going to be gone next. Just trying to decide if i want to do a full 3 inch exhaust with headers and high flow cats or doing a true dual exhaust with he tips coming out under the bumper.

Yeah im not a fan of silver either. I lucked out in finding this. I actually wasn't even looking for a hybrid to tell you the truth. I just happened to be the best looking black tahoe and at a decent price point. In my area.
I got it for 18k

jonah. I was interested in putting door trim for a 2015 on mine however I was told that they dont fit. I believe the 2015 has a longer door.

That pic of the rims after you hit the wall is crazy. I've never see that before LOL

 

[MightyThor]

Yes it is crazy. another crazy part of the accident is it bent my passenge side rear axel shaft. don't ask me how as the only damge on the rear of the vehicle was as some scratchs on the bumper and quarter panel and the wheel from debry from the front wheel

Id also like to find some custom fog lights to fit in the inserts in the bumper cover. want them to be the same size and shape

Nice hybrid! I have loved mine since I picked it up.

Any Tahoe lights will mount to it, but the appliqués above them won't match any other lights because they are unique to the hybrid model. Tinted stock hybrid tail lights are pretty much the best option, but they look good tinted.



The huge resonator they put in the back can come off asap too lol. I replaced my muffler with magnaflow 12589 and it sounds really good on the 6.0!
