What did you do to your NBS GMT800 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

I know, I know.. the heads are just filthy! I’m hoping to replace them sometime in the near future... [emoji16] obviously I need to clean them first though. [emoji106]

Just teasing you my stuff is usually filthy. Screw cleaning them if your going with something fancy. I hate cleaning grungy stuff.

Will a standard Z71 lower valance fit my front bumper without modifications? I’d really like to put round fogs in.. (2003 Yukon SLT)

Also, can anyone give me a part number, or link for the replacement plugs / trim pieces that hold the fan shroud in? I lost one the other day while cleaning up under there.. [emoji35]

This place has a great price on those fasteners.https://www.clipsandfasteners.com/Push-Type-Retainer-GM-Ford-Chrysler-p/pas1860-25.htm

This may have been talked about previously but the search engine on this site does me no good, and I'm not wanting to get the cheap-o wish app stuff. Has anyone done the smoke colored wood grain pieces in their Tahoes? I'm looking for a good looking one, something to change the look of the interior without being too crazy. I already planned on getting the gray Denali style wheel. Any other ideas to spice up the interior would be great.

Not sure what trim pieces you’re talking about but if it’s any of the stick-on stuff I would steer clear. I spent forever removing some of that stuff on my 08 Silverado after it started looking dated. On my 02 Denali I used lacquer thinner and scotchbrite to remove all the paint and fake wood grain, then painted it all.

That looks good. I guess I was looking for the Denali pieces that are factory. The stick on stuff looks tacky in my opinion. Your paint parts look good. The truck I was in has a bunch of smoke gray wood grain trim. If it's still here at the shop I'll snap a few pics.

The Z71 Valance will not be a direct fit to Yukon bumpers,the Valance has a different shape on the Tahoe/Burban bumpers compared to Yukon's.Some trimming would definitely be needed. A Denali bumper would be your best bet for rounded fogs, prices of of the Valance and the Bumper are about the same,at least what ive seen in my area.

Motor dropped a valve and ruined a piston. Yay me.

I’m not a fan of the faux wood grain myself.

Explain please. And which engine, the van or the 6.0? Sorry for the news Tony. Damn.
