I am considering Jarrod handles though.

Ditto. Or even if I can just find some green colormatched ones. :dunno: My local dealers said they are unavailable. They said I would have to get black ones and have them painted. I know damn good and well they came in this green color on Tahoes, Burbans, Yukons, Denalis, and even Eskys, as I have seen them.

That's no guarantee though that they have them available in each color. When my silver backup sensors went bad on my Sierra, they had to order parts and then paint them as they did not come pre-painted like they did when installed at the factory. If I were you, I'd buy painted ones and then have them scuffed and painted rather than trying to smooth the textured ones.

Already told you what I think. :thumbs:

Paint the corner caps like this IMO, looks cleaner.

Tahoe looks good.

But I would paint the rear caps like he says. I want to do this to mine. Currently looking for a set of yukon caps and have the top painted to match like you PS shows above.

That was my plan. No way I will be smoothing my stock textured ones. I keep putting it off though thinking one day I will maybe get lucky and find a wrecked one with green handles in the junkyard. :facepalm: I guess my main focus now is getting my AC fixed. :fume: The in laws just had to have the one on the 99 silvy replaced, it was about 800$.

I must be the only one that likes the rear C pillar caps glossy black. But nice.

I just put a bid in on the back glass and LED light setup from an Escalade. If I get that, I'll be all set.
