That must mean we're on the right path here :hmm:

I will take a Yukon front end over that anyday but not the Nali front end the grill and bumper grill (?) are stupid looking.

I think the Tahoe ltz frontend is soooo good looking if I had 72,000 to spend I'd still buy the LTZ and use the extra dough to upgrade seats leather to caddys level IMHO... I also love the hyhoes front end with the sexy extended bumper :shrug: I feel as if eskys are for the older crowd... Their nice but to preppy if you will..

So I'm at the GM dealership walking around looking at trucks while the hyhoe is getting de-chromed ... and I'm really loving the Denali in the white diamond tricoat. But something's making my ocd twitch.

Are these trucks only meant for 1 license plate states? The front plate attachment looks like a complete afterthought in the middle of the lower grille. :( the plate itself angles down and the whole thing is a mess undeserved of the beauty of the truck.

Is there an attractive solution for this?

Thanks.

Yeah no, in DC I'll get pulled over and cavity searched ... worse yet, fine and no cavity search.

Haha...but seriously, I have never really noticed the front plates on yukons...there too low to even be that noticeable imo. Maybe get one of those "special" plate designs that matches the truck you get better?

Interestingly, I saw a nice 1500 Sierra Denali which had a similar mounting issue ... but it had been remedied with a license plate holder thicker at the bottom making the lp sit vertically straight. It still broke up the beautiful line of the lower grille, but at least it looked right. I'm thinking there must be something similar for the Yuk.

Hmm... not really sure if its that big of an issue. The denali looks good with or without a front plate.

Keep telling yourself it looks nice and you'll start to like it...Navigator owners do it all the time :naughty:
