Fosscore's 2006 Tahoe Build Thread

[Fosscore]

Nice score on the HD hood. I would love to have one on my Yukon, but the added body work around the lights doesn't make it feasible right now.

Yeah man it was a sweet score and 6 bolts later it is a direct swap. Lucky with the Tahoe.

You guys with the Yukons have a bit more of a challenge with the custom work around the lights. Would be worth it though.

Oh man. Hard enough to keep the paint clean. But appreciate the efforts.

Thx sir. I like your idea. Go for it. It will still be editable even though it is going back to the start of the thread?

Never know, I might have to add something to the list down the track. Thx.
