it is going to be impossible to find barn door style escalade lights... pretty sure they did not make a barn door lade.

Looking good. ... Just swap out the rear for a lift gate. .. (lol) is that possible?

I've actually thought about it. The limo that I got some of the parts from has the complete back end in tact. It's for sale. I have no idea what he wants for it or it would take to do it, and assume it's a big project. At this point I think I've gone overboard already with this thing. It all started with thinking it'd be cool to put an Escalade clip on my truck after an accident. If it's an easy bolt on though, I'd consider it. Although,...my wife would probably kill me. (and I do like the swing out doors.)


Just realized there was a page 8 to this thing. I'll read thru that last post later today Mike. Looks like some good info.

Ty, you're right. No Escalades with barn doors 02-06. The doors hit the body moldings. We didn't realize it until mine was almost done and the doors wouldn't open. My body and paint guy Al almost had a cow. Major bummer, but I'm pretty happy with how he minimized the negative effect.
-----------------

Mike, just read through that post. Yeah I dig "Post 51". Especially the top ones. I still don't know where he got 'em though. I sent Big Tap a pm (here).

Just got my parts back from paint. They came out great. It'll be a couple weeks before I can change the bumper. Too much to do at work. Thought I'd share a photo with ya'll though.

Awesome conversion! I just have one question- does that escalade rear bumper cover just bolt on to your stock one?
