Some of you might have seen this on the old forum. The carpet is being replaced right now and the AV system is being rewired since there was some issues getting it back together. I hope to have it back by next week.

For those who didn't see it on the old forum, here are a list of the mods:
-Color change from gray to BMW Toledo Blue Metallic
-SS front bumper
-HD hood
-Z71 rear bumper
-Street Scene Speed Grill inserts
-Billet bowtie
-Shaved roof rack
-Shaved emblems
-Escalade handles
-Street Scene smooth vent caps
-Clear corners
-LED tails
-'03+ truck fog lights
-Painted running boards

Parts awaiting to be installed once I get it back:
-2/3 drop
-Magnaflow exhaust with Corsa tip
-HID's
-LED running lights
-Escalade guages
-My old 22's that I took off when I dropped it off. Didn't want to get overspray on them.

And the newest pictures:

Yeah, my cell phone doesn't exactly take very good pictures. I even tried to enhance them with pretty poor results. Here is a little better picture of what the color looks like in a different light.

That'll look good when it's finally done. How long has it been now?

I love the ss bumper and hd hood combo. You don't have a bad ass tahoe unless you put those on. Seriously, love the rig. Where did you get the led running lights?

They're just LED bulbs, not actual housings like the tails. I got them off of Ebay pretty cheap though.

There's been a lot of set-backs along the way with this project. This was a side project being done by a guy that I know at an EXTREMELY reasonable rate, so I knew I was going to have to be a little patient. I'll be honest though, this was much longer than I expected. The roof and other body panels were all kinds of messed up from some previously botched body work, he had family medical issues that took him away for a little while and he had to jump shops in the middle of it. I stuck with him though because he's a good guy and I've seen the quality of rides he's put out there...they look awesome.
