Replica Escalade 3rd brake light and housing

[saintg]

Can anyone who's received theirs comment on if the black paint is of decent quality and matches the OEM paint well (if you have a black truck)?

its not painted its just a black plastic, atleast the one that i got was just a plastic.

Received the first pics today of the light taken apart, looks like a clean job to me thus far. Maybe Vegas will post some of his process on this thread as I don't mind sharing the info. MACHO the unit I received was painted gloss black and seemed to match the paint of my black Yuk perfectly.

Its weird that you guys bought the same rep from the same person from the same auction and one was painted and one wasnt lol

Thank you. If mines not painted ima be pissed tho. Did you order from the exact same link on this page?

This was the photo on the ebay page and its painted in the photo. Seller was Jtubby. I'd dispute that if its the same and wasn't painted.

I personally hope mine isnt painted ahaha

I purchased the same thing from the same ebay seller and mine was the same gloss black as the stock rear appliques. I purchased the clear/smoked version and the red lens one. Trying to keep the Yukon tame since it is a daily driver for my wife. I still have the clear/smoke version that I would be willing to sell before I try to return it to Jtubby on ebay. Just PM me.

^^^bobblehead, if that's to me, thanks, but I actually ordered the red light and sent it directly to Vegasf6 to be modded.

...sorry...it's late and I am coming down with the flu and am not in the clearest state of mind right now. I was just explaining how mine was when I received it and just putting it out there that I have an extra one laying around that needs a good home.

 

[MACHO]

Got the good meds huh haha, no worries and I appreciate the info! GLWS or the return!

that's a compliment if I am making YOU jelly... Spring Meet will be sweet!

FYI Vegasf6 received my light already and confirmed it IS painted gloss black.

Do you guys think it is going to look weird on my Yukon with the smoked G5 tail lights and the red escalade 3rd brake light? Should I have it smoked too? Need some input. Thanks!

 

[Red_Raider]

I am contemplating the same thing about mine. Smoked tails and stock 3rd. Should've bought the package that sold all 3. oh well I guess I'll just have to break down and buy it

yea thats the one i got from the same dude, maybe mines painted didnt really inspect it that well. i just kind of assumed it was black plastic.

Got mine today it's painted black!

 

[Phil DeVtec]

Can someone post a fitment pic? I want to see if there are any gaps.

 

[Blazed]

I'm about to install mine in a few days.

 

[Blazed]

I have a question for the modder.
Do you think the replica or the OEM will look better modded?

 

[Goodinblack]

Should look the same right?

From my CB Radio.

 

[MACHO]

They'll look the same. Unless the housing looks different. It's the same amount of LED's
