The wife's 08 LTZ Tahoe build

[mazdawg(Mikey)]

Scored some oem esky lights and appliqués off of eBay. The seller was listing the taillights and offered the appliqués free with them. I got all 4 pieces for $282 and to my luck they were already pearl white.

And the most current addition and how it sits currently. I really like the look of the new Tahoe door handles so I added vinyl to copy the look. I used Avery vinyl I got off of eBay and it matches really nice. I’ll post a picture of a new Tahoe door handle for reference. Mine look nowhere as good as they do but from a few feet they are pretty cool.

I’ve also stuffed a 32” curved lightbar behind the grille but I have zero pics of that. Next time I have the bumper off I’ll snap some pics of that

With an addition to the family on 12/7/16 I needed to add a few things to make the wife happy. I lowered it so she could get our son in and out easier. Believe it or not that was her request. I did the Belltech 2/4 drop with spindles and springs. I replaced the balljoints and axles while it was apart and did the spohn rear adjustable sway bar. I also swapped out the deck with a Kenwood DDX9903S and added a camera under the rear headrest so we could watch Will while driving. Also added an oem USB port

Added a small black decal to the steering wheel bow tie to break up the silver and cover up a weird little dent in it. Swapped out the headlights and added an esky third brake light.

My hoe has a dent in the stearing wheel too!

Where'd u get the decal from? Or did u make it?

Howd u add the dome light thats really cool! Did u jump it from thr other light in the back?

I ordered the decal off of eBay. The dome light I just extended the wires and tapped them onto the rear dome light in the roof.

I did a decent amount of searching to see what guys were running with that wheel size. I didn’t want a super low profile tire since the wife is driving it. I also didn’t want too narrow of a tire so it doesn’t have the wheel lip hanging out as the furthest point. After a lot of trimming they don’t rub anymore and they ride great. She’***** several potholes (women drivers am I right?) and no wheel damage as of yet
