I've gone both routes. Originally I color matched. Then I got esky mirrors. I think with the chrome trim the Esky mirrors look MUCH better.

Also about the denaligrill.com Vendor on here i'm sure they are real nice but I'd go OEM anytime there's a chance...

As for Esky mirrors has anyone tried these bottoms and just painting the chrome top cap?

That's the route I'm considering because I believe the Esky mirrors don't fit perfect along the bottom of the window. Do you know Felix?

The first guy Cardomain seem like a douche. Find another inspiration. I like HBR's yukon alot.

I like your truck overall. I would leave the chrome handles. The carID grille I like too, if that is too $$$ find something that looks like that. I think the wheels on yours and all your inspiration trucks look like they are trying too hard. I would powdercoat to match, is that possible on chrome? Sorry if you find that offensive... It's just that you asked.

Oh and you can post ALL you like. Keeps TYF alive.:)

I have gone both routes. The chrome overlay is aftermarket stick on chrome. It's worth what it cost... About $30... I had em and immediately I knew I had to get oem Esky mirrors. They will run about 200-300 but sooooo worth it. There is one tiny gap when installing them bc the escalade's have a window trim that goes all the way around the glass on each door that the Esky mirrors sit on top of. It still looks really good and if Serge has em and can live with the gap then I think you will be alright :)

Here is my only pic I have of when I had them on:

Also, on the chrome lowers, I didn't like how the chrome piece didn't extend onto the part of the mirror that folds in (like how they are on the esky mirrors). It is just very obvious that it is just stick on chrome.
