Now that you mentioned it,it does look like trailblazer,just fatter.

BTW, if you haven't thought about it yet, if you want the paint to last on the rockers,I'd advise getting them wrapped in clear protective film or they will get sandblasted in no time.

That looks killer Robbie.
I think the rockers look great. You do great work. Keep us posted.

Thanks guys!

And here she was before she left yesterday...

Looking good

But the rack needs to go and rear bumper shortened IMO to compliment the rockers.

To give you an idea ,here are few pics of the rear I modified on Fernando's (killer67) Escalade.Don't mind how dirty or high it is, we dropped it 3" front & 4" rear ,just don't have pics.

Wow! Amazing job Robbie!

Elite, are those tailights painted or covered?

It'll be good to leave it the way it is now. The roof rack has to stay because the ribs I think will look pretty ugly without it and it has a wierd big dip behind the sunroof which really stands out with it off. You're eye level to the roof so all that stands out.

As far as the bumper, you did and awesome job on it. We're going to leave it alone for now, it always gives the customer something to change up a year from now. Tuck the bumper, throw on a different set of wheels and have a whole different look for the following year. It was tough to find a spot to, but the line had to be drawn somewhere so that we can get it done and the customer can start enjoying it!

Thanks Robbie, I see what you're saying on the roof, it's not flat like the previous gen. I guess you can always cut it out and fab up a flat skin

I agree about drawing the line somewhere,it's always hard. I guess you'll have something to do in a year or two

They are painted body color on the side and tinted clear (smoked) on the rear face. Stefan did them with laser precision

Could not be happier
