Coming along nicely. Glad to see those lights have the white reflector instead of the amber. Now replace the turn signals with led 3157 switchbacks and corners marker lights with 194 white leds.

Plastidip the chrome trim on the hood black for now.

2/3 drop will look good. Looking at a little more $$ to keep autoride with a drop kit but your ride not mines. I personally think the system is outdated and too spendy to keep and maintain. Install helper bags and call it good.
It doesn't cost any more to keep Autoride when doing a drop. All that's needed is a couple small pieces of all thread for the ride height sensors. I tow with mine dropped on 26's and never have to worry. Perfect height every time.

Yeah I am not sure where the whole it costs more thing is coming from, atleast as far as a 2/3 drop is concerned its the same. Shock relocation brackets are mandatory I guess, but you should really have those with any drop in the rear anyways.

Certainly if you try to go super low you wont be able to keep the factory setup, but that is another story.

Most likely NNBS 22" Escalade rims or current generation if I can find a good deal on them, most likely I'd do the drop and run the Denali rims I got for a bit

I do too, it's a different look I'll see how it looks lowered it might be perfect, had no luck selling/trading them, they will need tires after the summer I'll throw new tires on and keep them for a bit

I don't mean it's like double the price , just a few more parts added to the price. It's what tony quoted me for my 03 with autoride. I also had extra shipping cost because,...well you all know why :banghead:
