I'm going to start looking for exterior smooth door handles, (escalade style preferred) and possibl some painted side mirror housings (or those with the chrome piece) and possibly the denali dash bezel. If any one has part #s let me know, I've been going through the lists and snagging a few #s but haven't found the new bezel #.

Steel Gray is a great color...although i am a little partial! Door handles can be had in solid paint only..no escalade handles. mirror caps cannot be ordered at this time either. i got lucky and talked to my local dealer body shop and he gave me a set of paintable caps (already completely smooth).

ill try and find that part number on the handles for ya...if i dont post it tonight pm me and ill get it for ya

Sweet truck BTW!!!

nice truck, my father in law has the same truck. All the bells and whistles...onstar, satelite radio, heated seats. I was upset when I saw how much nicer the seats in those trucks are compared to the leather in my Tahoe

yeahhhhhhh bitch im back.
ill take those caps.

diehard, I'd appreciate any pn#s you have, I have a good buddy that does paint work, so I can get them painted, though I *hate* having to paint metallics, they never match up right or lay down the same.

On the mirror caps, they just snap in there or whats the story on them?

They have 2 or 3 snap-ins and some double sided 3m tape.
All you have to do is slide a butter knife in there and work it loose and they'll pull off.
