Damn... Lowest Escalade I have ever seen. Definitely nicely modded.

Did you mold the whole front bumper? Looks great though, are you going to repaint everything?

Nah, I didn't mold in the bumber. I should have molded in those fog light holes though. It's going to stay that color. The pearl white really stands out amongst the rest of my models. I just added paint to the bumbers and rocker panels to make it look even lower. I also added a ghost silverish green stripe across the top of the bumber and down the side of the truck. It's very suttle but helps blend the pearl white to the chameleon paint. Not to brag, but this caddy looks stunning in person. :smoker2:

NICE!!

I remember seeing that 'lade before, but i now just noticed the color on the front bumper for a more suddle fade to the chameleon. That looks HOT!! Nice A$$ job. And i never thaught of puting a darker color on the bumpers/ rocker panels to make it look lower, hmm i might have to do that mabye to the Denali?? Peace out

kb2003: Yep, if you install an air ride system on an escalade...then dump the air...and lay it on the ground. Then yes, this is what it would look like. The front wheels camber pretty bad on these trucks when aired out. This truck would also be the equivalent to a body drop which I don't think has been done yet to an escalade. At least not that I've heard of.

Scarface: You really have to see this truck in person to fully appreciate the silverish green graphics (they were applied during and with the mid-coat of the three step chameleon paint). As for the darker rocker panels...that's the good ole artist touch. Visual effects are fun to play with (ie, if you want a vehicle to look higher, use chrome strips on the rocker panels).

I'm out
