Since my last post I decided to put on the Escalade roof rack and removed the gold rear bowtie so it is now chrome, which goes really well with the chrome bumper accent. This picture was taken before I removed the bowtie though.

My 2009 Tahoe
PS Anyone wanting to add bass to their stock Bose DVD Rear Entertainment system is in luck. I finally found the necessary leads to grab signal for the sub amp. Check out the Tahoe Add-a-Sub thread in this forum.

New here
I'm new on here, 07 LS on 24" KMC. I'm looking to get the front grill blacked out including the chrome trim surrounding the grill. Also any suggestions on painting the lettering on the sides?

Taking them off and reapplying them is an option, but the difficulty level and time is hardly worth it. Painting them on the truck is along the same lines. You could mask off each nook and cranny with small pieces of tape and then try to cover the surrounding body as much as possible. This will still most likely result in some sort of over-spray on the vehicle.
Just be sure that if you are removing the old lettering, to take a piece of masking tape and create a line under the badging so that you can recreate the exact positioning. Also mark on the masking tape the outter edges of each letter so that spacing remains the same.
The only other option to doing this project would be to get some touch-up paint from the dealer and hand paint each emblem with a small brush. This will require some masking as well but much less than spray painting.
K, I have a question for you.. which rims are those and where did you get them?? Thanks.

Nice rides boys - I'm liking the black rims for sure. I'm thinking of getting winter tires next fall - if I do, pretty sure they'll be mounted on black rims.

Black rims
If you are looking at black rims for the winter, I'd suggest looking at American Racing's new ATX line. They use a Teflon coating to ward off the winter corrosion... I have the ATX Thugs and they still shine up no matter how much salt, sand, or mud I coat them with.
