Good looking truck!

How do you like the chrome trim that clips into the factory door moldings? Is it good quality chrome? Thinking of getting the same thing for my '11 Yukon until I can afford the real LTZ moldings.

Truck looks great, the list of mods I want t do includes many of the same you did. Very clean looking Tahoe, that new roof rack and some esky running boards with the chrome trim will set it off nice.

Many thanks for the warm welcome.

Felix the side chrome strips were Quality peices. All four peices were heavy well cut and fit perfectly from end to end.

One reviewer on the Amazon link said there was a gap, originally I was worried about this but the peices sent to me had no gap and was cut to lenght correctly. I too was going to buy the oem peices but decided I'm gonna stick with these peel and stick peices.

Thank you. I was debating between getting these, factory escalade chrome door trim, or 2015+ chrome door trim but this is by far the cheapest and looks good from the looks of your vehicle. I stumbled upon it on eBay but it was way more expensive. If you could, post up some up close pics of the door trim!
