Some recent photo updates....
Wheel caps have been changed out and I now have Husky Liners throughout. On to the Escalade Roof Rack (in time...)

Gorgeous Tahoe!
What's different about the Escalade roof rack than the Tahoe's?
EDIT: I just did a quick search on ebay and it looks like the Escalade crossbars are MUCH flatter. I admit it does bug me how much the Tahoe crossbars arc up. It's strange though...on ebay there are several listings for the same part number (#23206370), but some listing pictures show the flat crossbars, and some pictures show the arched ones like the OEM Tahoe.

I wonder if that center console fits right into an lt. Looks like it's just the top

broncophil - Thanks for the compliment!
JWAustinVTX - The taillights were not as easy of a swap as I thought they would be. LED vs. incandescent being the biggest issue. I've tried resistors but they only work for a couple of months. I'm in the process of getting this fixed permanently and will keep everyone posted when they are working 100%.
ebelp - I am referring to the side rails only even though the shallower crossrails seem enticing as well. Here is a picture of the Escalade side rail which I prefer over the black plastic / partial chrome rails that come with the Yukon/Tahoe...
showtime1k - It appears that the console cup holder lids are a bit more complex to change out than compared to the late models. It seems that the vinyl wraps around the cup holders on an LT for example where the LTZ the vinyl wraps to the rectangular opening and the lids are wrapped too. Maybe that upper vinyl piece and cup holders come off as a single piece.

Wow. This is a great looking tahoe. Keep up the good work. The plasti-dip front end looks good too.
Now you need to lower it a few inches, you know to show off the Escalade side rails when you get them.

Painting that valence makes the whole front look so slick. Love the wheels with the white paint.. Nice work !
