I **** after your setup every time I see it. Not a lot of luck finding a jumper to match Shale interior unfortunately!
Thanks! Dont let color set you back. LVP is a pretty easy way to change color. I used it to repair my worn Avalanche driver seat, and on my kids first car (2007 accord beater). Pretty durable stuff, and you just spray it in layers...ff1dec095ccf13ae7ffc9ac255583d15.jpg3933dc702a21a708b6bac3deba215174.jpg90d8c0cd6018afdbb1e28605b0e6eb69.jpg73cef97e8b1647dd49698b9576c00c78.jpg237fcf48b68c017e19b6d3a4979ff751.jpg

Wow, I hadn't even thought of that. My first thought was Katskinz, but not sure they make the right color either, and then I thought to just buy whatever color was available and have an upholsterer match the leather and stitch patterns. Seems like that option would be $$$$$ though. We'll see, it's something that's been on my mind for a while.

Would just trade captains for a 60/40 bench, but again, hard to come by in shale, and $$$$$ if you can find em. C'est la vie, no?

Finally, after about six months after gathering all parts, I got around to doing tow hook and fog light retrofit.

Also added anti-flickers for the headlights since the Morimoto 2stroke 3.0s just wouldn’t work properly. Passenger side was out most of the time and they kept flickering. So, hopefully this is it.

The retrofit wasn’t too bad, actually. I read one of the threads here to see how things go, but of course I had to do a few things twice since I didn’t think while working. The gen5diy harness made things simple on the wiring side. Just plug and play.

Nice job. Did you replace the light dial in the cab with the factory fog lamp one for an OEM look and function?

No. The fogs are always on with headlights. Not necessarily the way I like it, but it was much easier. Might look into an actual factory style conversion at some point. It’s just a bit more involved than what I’d prefer. We’ll see…

Ah I see. Makes sense when you put it that way. I think I’m going to eventually try to tackle a full factory style conversion for dogs at some point but I’d need a step by step from someone who’s done it and a lot of patience.

There is a step-by-step somewhere here on the board. Just not something I'm necessarily comfortable with doing as it requires some wiring stuff and I don't want to mess anything up. It shouldn't be too bad, but me and wiring stuff doesn't necessarily always go together, so I'll leave it as it is for now and maybe look into it later.

At least I have the fogs in there now and it will only matter of wiring if/when I get to it.

So I finished the chrome delete on my '15 Yukon XL Denali that is OEM Quick Silver Metallic this past weekend. The only items I had left to take care of was the chrome trim on the roof rails, chrome trim on the power retractable side steps, and the chrome on the door handles.

I went with gloss black on the roof rails and side steps. But I decided to color match the door handles to my OEM Quick Silver Metallic Paint. To do so I went with 3M 1080-G120 Gloss White Aluminum. I gotta say, for being vinyl and not paint I am beyond impressed with how well this vinyl matches the OEM Quick Silver Metallic Paint.

I know door handles are small, round, with a few tight rounded edges; So I had a level of expectation that there could be some minor wrinkles in the wrap near the end edges of the handles and there are some very tiny ones if you look close, but overall very impressed with how they turned out.

No full vehicle pics yet as my truck desperately needs a wash, detail, and I have one final exterior mod to go to finish the exterior.

My rig has 113K miles on it, and my door handles aren't perfect, but wanted to post some detailed pics to show you guys how well it matches.

I don't generally park like that, but the ball fields this day had a huge turnout and trucks were asked to assist like this
