Man that looks sick. Youve convinced me to do it. Im starting by painting the bow tie black then ill take the grill to get airbrushed. One more question, did you switch out the headlight bulbs with HID bulbs or did you switch out the entire headlight with an HID setup.

Hello all....New to the forum...I LOVE the Hoe's! I too have a 07, coming out of a 02 'Burban. I see all the Hoe's looking pretty and hooked up, but have a question for all: Has any of your Local Dealerships said anything about voidung the warranty? The reason I asked, is because I have a set of 24's off of the Burban, and the dealer is telling me that if I put them on, that they will have the right to refuse to do warranty work on the truck that will be needed due to the rims on the truck. I have the OEM 20's on there now, but not having the 24's is KILLING me. Any suggestions/comments would be greatly appreciated.
---To be reinstalled on the 07, from the 02...Alpine AI-Net IVA-D310, Orion 2500 HD, 3 JL 12", Polk Interior, and more..Will post pics when done...

My salesman told me the same thing, simple work-around though...
- Vehicle requires maintenance = Install factory wheels (I perform my own oil changes to avoid the
hassle)

Thanks for the response...I've been seeing a few people in my area with after market rims on...and was just curious. The dealer said that they can re-flash the computer to adjust for the transmission shifting and tachometer (up to 22"). Now what about the extra weight that the rims add to the vehicle, the tranny might get burnt out after some time....and the breaks, do they need to be beffed up...just curios, didnt do all that on the 'Burban, and the tahoe is less than a month old...trying to do it right....(has anyone seen dual exhaust yet on the 07's?)

More than likely you'll have to upgrade your brakes... The brakes on the Tahoe are rated up to 20 inches (I have 26's), so that's my next big project. Rotora makes a set of 12 piston calipers and power slotted rotors for the '07. Your transmission should be fine... It's made to tow around 7000lb extra pounds, I'm sure an extra 220lbs (or so) won't bother it too much. As for the exhaust, there are tons of options... Just depends on what you fancy. I have flowmaster super 40's with custom pipework.... Corsa and Magnaflow both make bolt on kits

Has anyone done the second row console or can suggest one to get? I have second row buckets in ebony. I'm looking for more storage space to say the least.

to the forum and thank you for your service.
Here's what I've done/plan to do: billet grill, removed rear emblems & GM on sides, rear flaps, moved wheel weights to inside, Lloyd mats, second row console, Superchips, catback exhaust, black bowties, and maybe GM CAI.

This is SWEET!!...I'm planning on getting the same exact rims...but with the white inserts, to match my white 07 Tahoe..did they come with the second set of inserts, and looking at the rims, dont they come directional to show spinning all the same way, does the other side rotate the same way? What kind of paint did you use to paint the bowtie?

First of all, Just wanted to say Hey to everyone, and say that this is a really kool forum...
I Do alot of Rock crawlin in my jeep that I have, so I frequent alot of forums and this will be a new one to check out with all the rest each day.
My wife and I just picked up our New 2007 Tahoe yesterday, and all I can say is WOW !!! I used to own a 98 4x4 Tahoe, and it was nothing compared to this thing...
Its got all the bells and whistle, Its been dropped 2 and 4. Or something to that nature..

.. Has a really nice stance in my opinion.
Its black on black... Which will be hard to keep clean inside and out while having 2 little girls ages 5 and 8 yrs old..
Anyway, I wanted to share some pic of my new ride... Its not clean in this picture, But once it stops raining, I will clean it up, and post some nice ones of it.
The interior is as black as the paint, but for some reason it looks strange in these pic..

Well guys I didn't go with a Hoe, I went with its big brother instead. Check out my stock 07 Suburban. I'm hopeful that I will have some new wheels and stereo for it soon.
