However that photo that was posted is good and that is what it looks like. I personally like it and think it looks good.

I think this is far superior in looks compared to other models. Dont get me wrong I am no way stuck with GM products since I buy a lot of aftermarket items. However I had a weathertech hood deflector on my 2002 Silverado and that was an awesome piece of equipment and was going to buy it for my Tahoe. But when I saw the painted version from GM it definitely changed my mind and was a lot better if you ask me. However I will let the pictures do the talking.

At least they matched up on my 2002 Silverado but I have to say hands down I think and believe the GM match painted looks a lot better and seems to fit the lines and style perfectly. _____________________________ "Some heroes wear capes, mine wear combat boots!"

RE: 07 Hood protector - 9/2/2007 6:49:03 AM    snomon Posts: 127 Joined: 7/25/2007 Status: offline I went with a weathertech smoke to match the weathertech vent visors.   I thought smoke would go well with greystone. I'm getting the 3M clear bra this week and may be losing the shield anyway.  The weathertech does have rubber expanding rivets that bolt up to existing holes under the hood, BUT you have to put on the little 3M rubber stops on the hood to keep the protector from banging on the hood.  I hate those, but this protector seems to hug the hood lip tighter than the GM one.  _____________________________ 07 LTZ Graystone -2" Leveling, 1" Lift Rear, 285/55/20 BFGs -GMX-320/IPOD Lockpick, Bostons w/10" sub, 2 Xtant Amps -3M Clear Bra, Weathertechs -Magnaflow Catback, Hotchkis Sways, Esky tails -Edge, Volant CAI, HIDs, Umnitza Demon Eyes (in reply to jdkluck) Post #: 19
