IMO this "before" pic of the driver's side shows what you're probably talking about: I had always just assumed the slight "mismatch" was intentional - that you were actually trying to match it to a slightly different black of another surface somewhere else on the interior (kick panels maybe? dunno) Looks sick either way, very nice

the version that's on the "Street Runnaz 26" mixtape by DJ Spinatik?

ludacris - coming 2 america (parts of it at least) i'm kinda drawing a blank right now, but i'm sure i'll think of more

well considering it hasnt been driven for two years (is it closer to 2.5 years now?), he probably hasnt had a chance to "stop to get gas " LOL that's why i'm asking the question smartass anybody that has any idea what they're talking about care to chime in?

speaking of gas... here's a question i've had in the back of my mind for awhile in watching this build: how full is the gas tank on the hoopty? i'm assuming it had a full tank (or close) when it got to steve's house, but over the past two years its been running quite a bit and obviously it hasnt been driven to a gas station to fill up. how is that working? is it down to like a quarter of a tank? have you used a little 2 gallon tank to put more gas in it?

That's what I like to hear! Definitely looking forward to those pics too! Steve has 7000s in the lows and fogs in his 2001 Tahoe, now Chicken has 12000s in the lows and fogs in his 2002 Escalade. I'd love to see some comparison pics for color/brightness differences for sure

VERY good choice... i had a viper 5900 in my previous vehicle, and i have a python 990 (exact same thing with different stickers/badges) in my current vehicle. awesome range, plenty of outputs for expansion modules - all around damn near the best remote start/alarm you can buy i'm definitely looking forward to those pics!

rocko's best line in that track: "you need a key for yours? my shit auto-start. talk to the car, car talk back" not sure what this one has to do with jeezy though... jeezy's on the remix: somebody else mentioned TI's verse - he's right after jeezy on the version that i linked

song is old... first heard it on a DJ Spinz mixtape called "Southern Swagger 6" about 13 months ago pretty badass song anyway though

IIRC 2002 was the last year that escalades came without stock HIDs, and i dont remember seeing that the hoopty had aftermarket HIDs in any of the earlier videos any plans to put in aftermarket HIDs? i would hate to see a vehicle worth $100,000+ not look its finest for lack of a $250 headlight mod you're doing a HELL of a job on this project though... i'm lovin every minute of it

You gotta love making people bail out of the car 20 seconds into a demo. The thing that really gets me is how they can never seem to find the door handle, which is weird because everybody and their mother has a Silverado/Tahoe/Escalade/Yukon/Sierra, so you'd think that they would know where it was. One nitpick - at the beginning, where you have the list of equipment in the vehicle, you put the stuff from the Escalade (8 BTLs, 2 T15Ks, 2 alternators, etc.) instead of what you have in the Tahoe (4 BTLs, 23K RF Watts, 4 alternators, etc.). Anybody else see that? Looking forward to watching the rest!
