Hey, all....New to the forum, but feel that it is the right place to solicite some advive. I have a 96 Tahoe that, after 2 years, I am considering some changes to. Mostly due to desiring a new paint job, but also because I have a hard time keeping my hands still. I'm surprised I made it this long. Anyway...I need opinions on which way to go with the exterior. I bought it stock. Here it is after I bought it:
I recently stripped the badges and molding off thinking I am going to go for the blacked out look. So far:
If I go with the total black out I figure it will look like this (minus the wheels):
After removing the molding, I am not sure I like it. It looked great, and I think classy, stock with molding on. I like the look of the blacked out version (thanks, PS) but not sure I will like it as much as the original. I don't want to spend too much just to have it turn out that I don't like it. I had to remove the moldings anyway as the chrome was pretty much gone after 12 years and the fender molding was full of door dents. Plus I will be repainting next year. Both are easily replaceable if I decide to go back, but the bumpers could set me back a few dollars.
Looking for opinions and welcome them all. I realize each has their own taste, and in the end I will make my own decision, but feel free to voice yours!
