Just picked up a 2013 Escalade with 143k on the clock. Pretty lucky to find this one and the timing workIng out the way it did. One owner with great service records.
Going to try and keep things pretty basic and as inexpensive as possible.. let’s see how that goes.

Second day and second bath...

Also had the tint done. 5 all around and 35 on the shield.

I’ve got a rear drop kit from Tony waiting to go on. Hoping to get that done and some 305/40 proxes installed soon. I’ve seen mixed reviews on rubing. Any feedback here?

nice!, does it have side blind zone sensors? if so can you post up the vin # I am interested in pricing out some parts that I can upgrade on my Denali but I need a good vin number to make sure I am getting the right information.

Great score! Don't see too many Platinum trims, that Tehama leather is really nice, the Cadillac crest in the seats has always been so cool to me.

Not sure it’s worth the upgrade but here you go.

I’m really enjoying it so far. I wish I was able to get the brown interior but this certainly works too.

It’s been too long. Forgot how much I hated taping and masking stuff off.

I’m not too sure what I think about it at this point. I might end up doing the running boards as well.

Also had these show up. Hopefully I don’t regret going with these vs weathertech’s.

What do you mean 50/50 with glossifier? You mean it's on the left half and not on the right?

What product are you using?

Need a better profile pic to see it as a whole.

Got a couple things planned for tmrw. Once I finish those I’ll spam this place with photos.

Only the finest for this one! Plastidip

Correct on the 50/50
