Re: GoodInBlack's 2009 Suburban Build.

2/3 is too low for 20s anyway

Exactly right.

It makes a Tahoe look like a Volvo station wagon. No really.....

J.T. I think your trucks sits perfect right now. Just get 22s and you are done.

Jacobs truck looks good because it is a Suburban and has a Sexy Man behind the wheel.

It looks better when he is actually behind the wheel.

Update on the LED tail lights.

CarID wanted me to pay from shipping for a DEFECTIVE product.

I complained and they comp'd the shipping via a prepaid UPS ground label.

Return label said ANZO USA on it, lights sold as CG, and actual product says Eagle Eyes on it.

It is a fact that all three brands are the same, just sold for different prices at different places to poor suckers.

On the other hand..........

Spyder
Depo
RedLines
IPCW

are different brands..... though may still be made at the same factory by different commissions.

So far service at CarID has been below average, will update when I get my refund posted.

Wow that's crazy. Very informative post GiB. I always wondered what was up with those 3 brands.

Lame that they wanted you to pay for shipping! Glad you didn't. That's what I like about amazon, just click on defective and print your return slip and bam no shipping. I'm told eBay seller Revotec has very good customer service too.

Hope you get a new pair soon Lee! Sucks having to wait again.

so it appears Serge's theory was correct on that. Interesting!! Now I feel VERY fortunate that my G4's work without issue :D I have been tossing around going back to a stock tail but tinted, though :hmm:

^^STOCK??? Jacob you need some G5s tinted. :handshake:

:lol: I would but I'm personally not a fan of the esky appliqués and would have to do that mod for the G5's. I like the smooth lines of my stock appliqués :)

Re: GoodInBlack's 2009 Suburban Build.

Looks like Jacob and I share the same opinion on that subject....

I like the Escalade look, just that the appliques for the TahSubYuk are rounded. If the G5s did not waste my round appliques they would be on already.

Even getting the Escalade appliques is not enough. Then you have to paint them.:banghead:

I know. It's such an expense to do it.. I want to so bad but 250 for the tails, 210 for appliqués, + paint.. Meh
