Handles colormatched

[bcubed]

Put my escalade handles on yesterday, really glad I went with the pre-painted ones. I spent an hour sanding my tailgate handle and bezel, got all the texture out but didn't get all the scratches out. It looks ok, but I'm gonna take it off again later and sand it some more and put some more paint on it, it will do for now. :thumbsup:

And yes, debadging it is in the near future. :whip:

Ok, you guilted me into it, one 1500 is almost off, the other to follow. That's probably all I will do today as I worked my ass of on some stuff yesterday and wanted today to be a lazy day, now look what you did, made my ass do some work :LOL:

gmparstdirect.com ... they were like $85 shipped. Only thing is, does anyone know if they make them in white? I thought all the escalades were pearl white, so they wouldn't really match. I know you can get the Tahoe/Yukon handle in white but it wouldn't have the chrome.

Yeah, but the bugshield is held on with 5 screws, comes off in snap ... for shows it will definately be off. The moudling, not so easy to take off and on unless I put some magnets behind it :LOL:

Nice looking handles, much better than stock. :D
And leave that door trim on, just take off the "1500" and "LS" badges.
