I do plan on removing the stripe and door molding, as well as tint the windows. Also have plans to give it a good wash at some point Haven't seen the escalade handles though...got a pic?

Looks good but looks higher than I would want in front. My truck wants to climb the guard rail at 90mph when I have front like that.

Yeah I sort of get that problem too.. Headlights aim into the sky when I'm in the throttle. Not sure if I want to do much else besides get straps on it though.

The truck came with some stick on chrome pieces for the handles. Looked like garbage, so I ripped them off lol. I'm a fan of the OE look so I'll probably just stick with that.

Go with the all gloss black handles! Get some job Gibbs handles and bumper covers! Even the job Gibbs tail gate cover is a clean look.

I don't think I could put something as nice and shiny as that joe gibbs tailgate on and then willingly scratch it when I load up my quad to go to the dunes lol. Would look pretty awesome though.
