Updated Pics After Paint and Body Mods

Updated Pics...Now with Drop

I finally got around to snapping a few pics of the ride after getting it back from paint. If any of you saw it before on the old forum, you know that it was a basket case and has come a long way. It still has a ways to go and I have many more things to install on it. The 2/3 Belltech drop, exhaust, Escalade guages and Volant intake are in the garage waiting to be installed. Just need some more time to get around to it. I'm also about to go pick up some Belltech sways I scored on Craigslist on the cheap.

I agree 100%, what color is that??

Thanks for all of the compliments guys. It was a LONG wait, but I feel it came out pretty well and will only get better once I do some of the other mods on the list. I swear, I never thought I'd get this thing back. I still have a few other finishing things to do to it outside of the mods as well, but will get to them.

The color I chose is BMW Toledo Blue Metallic. I wanted something that looked mildly custom that wasn't over the top and could match easily in case I needed to have some spots re-touched later on. The wheels are 22x10 with 305/40/22 tires.

I go back and forth on the barn doors. I didn't originally want themand favored the lift gate, but I got a good deal on the Tahoe and they've grown on me. There aren't a ton of Tahoe's with the barn doors and I feel like they give it a little nostalgic look. Maybe I'm just looking for reasons to talk myself into liking them more...haha.

Oh and before anyone says it, yes I am getting the front windows tinted. My wife bought me a gift certificate to have it done, I just haven't gotten around to setting the appointment. Like everything else, I need to find the time. I work in baseball, so summer is tough for me to squeeze my projects in between work and the daily rigors of life.

The barn doors are unique, I like them but like the hatch style better though because of clearance when opening in a tight spot!
I want to see the pic on the Tahoe before, I slightly remember it but not to clear though?

[joes 00 Hoe]
