sounds like me. the first time i painted my bowtie, i couldn't wait to get it on and see what it looked like. i put a nice fingerprint in it. i had it perfectly color matched too. took my another 4 tries to get the color right. because my lack of patience, i got a bit frustrated.

the denali looks sweet man.

i was thinking about doing the chrome on my side mirrors the same color as the truck. what do you think ILLNALI? and maybe the doorhandles too? probably will have to buy the handles already painted

that'd look good. On my '03 gmc I had the black rubber pieces colormatched and left the chrome. You may be able to buy the already painted mirror caps if they made a Yukon or Tahoe in your color, same with the door handles.

Ya, that's how I feel about the shaker hood, but have you seen this one. They make it for GMC's and it doesn't have the "heat extractor" vents. I've never seen it in person, but it looks promissing. Thier website shows a pic of a Chevy!?!
