Welcome! I like your truck, but don't care much for the tails... You might also consider getting some Meguiars PlastX or something to shine up those headlights like new. You a chrome fan? I wonder how cool some chrome nerf bars might make it look in place of those runnin' boards?

The new rims sound cool, and will make it look wicked. I wouldn't mess with ya!

Again, cool truck, and welcome.

Nice Tahoe/Yukon? You say it's a Tahoe, but the grille looks like that of a GMC Yukon? Either way, I really like how the mirrors and door handles are painted to match the rest of the vehicle.

I think painting the front bumper as well to complete the monochromatic look of the vehicle would be a nice and relatively easy upgrade.

Great looking vehicle! Take care.

Replace running boards with amp research steps to clean up the lines with the body lift. I would have a muffler shop replace those duals with a single tip raised to the boy line too. 3/4ton torsion bars, 6.5" dick cepek lift and some 38s would look nice :cheers:

yea i may raise my duals up but i like the two outlets, not a big fan of the single...what would the 3/4 ton torsion bars do for it?? i already have a 6" Pro Comp lift i have no need to replace that and yes i am goin to buy some 36 or 37 soon

The pro comp kit is good, didn't see the crossmember but I should have guessed from the stock track width. Those 3/4ton bars with a replacement spring out back would tower some 37's.
