Just Getting Started need Help

[buck51]

Hey guys, my mom handed me down her 2000 yukon xl because she's buying a new Escalade. Im stuck between what i should do to it. Either putting a lift on it with some rugged tires and try to black it out or keeping it the same height and blacking it out. She already has 22 inch chrome rims on it. I need suggestions on what i should do to it. Please comment back it be very helpful.

Welcome Matt! Some pics might give us a better idea on how to point you in the right direction.

this is a question only you can answer, what are you wanting from the truck? fit a specific size tire? take it hunting? just make it look good?

Black it out, only the OBS looks good lifted IMO. Bag it or drop it.

yeah I'm torn apart between what i should do. I don't think that this car would really fit the lifted look to well
I definitely want to get it blacked out but i can't find black bumpers and black side trim

get a set of 26s and leave it alone

Will that affect my turning radius? it has 22's right now and rubs while making sharp turns.
Do any of you know of websites for bumpers that are black?

Welcome Matt!

I see what you did there.

Yes, it will, unless you do some trimming and modding.
For the bumper you can check eBay, StylinTrucks, and I believe SummitRacing has a black powder coated bumper.

You may just be better off having your current bumper painted or powder coated. That's what I did with mine.

I would get them powder coated or look for some Z71 or denali bumpers at a salvage yard.
