More of a leveled guy myself. But your esky pulls it off being all black with blacked our windows, pretty sinister looking. Definately need to black out the steps now

Haven’t updated this in awhile. Added the Cadillac dash trim off an 02, the 03-06 ones had woodgrain trim there which I wasn’t a huge fan of

This build has officially come to a close, it was a tough call the rockers on the Escalade were shot was looking at $1500 a side, there was some rust starting under the cladding behind the driver side rear tire, the front diff was on the way out, and some other miscellaneous things. I couldn’t justify spending 3k on the rockers plus everything else it’s 04 after all with 171k. I came across someone with a clean Crown Vic P71 which was something I’ve always wanted and decided to do the trade they threw some cash in too so it was a worthwhile trade for me, I’ll be back in a GM SUV one day.

What the...:insane:

I’m sure many people will be shocked, the rockers were gone got real bad in the last year was anywhere from 1000-1500 a side all depended how much had to be cut out, there was some rust starting under the cladding behind the driver side rear tire, both front fenders were rusting in a few places, the front diff was on the way out and some other things I just couldn’t justify putting that kinda money into an 04 with 171k if it didn’t need the bodywork I would have kept it, one day I’ll pick up a clean NBS Esky/Denali from down south and get back into the GM truck game.
