@Tonyrodz, yeah I think I got pretty lucky. He was asking $4500 and sold it to me for 3.5k straight with no haggle. I didn't even have to see it in person to say yes.

Yeah, he knew I'd baby it. He's owned it 13 years so it's close to him.

@quest51210

This is probably the best thread on the HD hood subject. Yes, Tahoe and Yukon (Denali) headlights are different. HD hood to the Tahoe is a direct bolt on from the 01-02 Silverado.
GMC models have to cut/modify the front lip to mold around the headlights. See this thread for all those questions. I just wanted you to be aware as Tahoes are a direct swap.

GMC needs modification, but it will be worth it. Just have to be good at it yourself or find a shop who can take their time, but many guys have done it.
