Speakers look good. I like the cubby light too. Lol yeah got on painting that hatch!! Haha

Some nice light work going on. Level looks good and IMHO the LTZs ...ahem ...look better than the Nissan’s. They roll nice on the NBS.

From the day I got this Tahoe I wanted nnbs tahoe ltz 20s. After waiting i finally got them. Best looking factory wheel on a nbs imo . Nissans still looked clean, dont even lie.

The ltzs are hard to find up here in good shape. I get offers weekly asking if I'd sell them, unless I find a good deal on the right looking oem 22s

Djm 2" lowering springs in back. Front oem keys slightly adjusted to meet the 34.5" fender lip to ground measurements. Subtle but noticable and clean looking.View attachment 207417 View attachment 207418 View attachment 207419

Looks great

Shoot. The Nissans did look good. LTZs better. Lol

I have a set of matte black LTZs on 20s (5k Miles total) and the Suburban chrome LTZs could find a home too.

Too bad you are soooo far away.

I did that to my girlfriend once. I put some stuff on the running boards to bring the color back and she almost busted her ass too. In my defense it did look good!

@Rocket Man used fusion paint on his rear bumper step pads. Not sure if it's slippery, but he says it's holding up pretty well.

You guys should try Chemical Guys trim+tire gel. I use it as tire dressing and it’s totally dry to the touch when the tire is properly cleaned(which I always do) lol. It can also be used on trim and works fantastic. Totally dry to the touch and not slippery!

Not slippery at all. After almost 3 years it still looks great.

Unfortunately there comes a time when black plastic becomes faded enough that there's no dressing that will bring it back. Mine was turning almost white around the raised areas. I've used Krylon Fusion or Dual Bond on all my black plastic pieces on both trucks and it really looks nice. Just spray lightly though so the texture doesn't get filled in. Several super light coats works best for me. Here's my 08 CC hood parts I just did. The spots are a slight misting of rain after I installed them.
