I have some pics of my Escalade spread out in a few different threads so I thought I would combine them into just one.

I reached out to Tony about a month ago to get a lowering kit. Tony was incredibly helpful in answering questions both before and after the sale. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

Here's a list of what's been done so far:

Bell Tech 2/3 kit with front spindles and rear springs.
DJM hardware kit
DJM front and rear sway bars
Arnott Bilstein shocks and struts
24" Replica wheels on Pirelli 305/35/24 tires
VLED 5000k fog and parking lights (tied to the fog light button so I can have them on at night. Still need to replace the headlight bulbs to match)
K&N panel filter (cheesy, I know)
GMX550

Anyway, here are the pics:

Before the drop:

I've been wanting to get rid of some of the chrome. I plasti dipped the side moldings black to see how it will look. I think I like them black but would maybe prefer them to be gloss black.

I'm pretty sure I'll do gloss black door handles and leave the window, roof rack, step and fender vent trim chrome.

Any thoughts?

The color on my factory Cadillac emblems was starting to fade so I had a friend who runs a vinyl decal shop make these for me. I think they look pretty good and a little more simple than the color ones. Thoughts?

I like what you've done with it. With the black molding I'd definitely go black handles IMO
