I paid a total of $1200 for the parts and labor. I sectioned the bumper/grille w/my bro and buddy, and a shop built a steel bumper behind the plastic 1, cut the fenders, and mounted everything.

can see alot more than that wrong but if it wasnt just for those few things then maybe in pics alone it wouldnt stand out so badly..... id be pissed at the shop that done it ...
plus if thats a new clip then why is the headlights all milked out like they are 5 years old .... im thinkin the milked out paint and also headlights is just from a fresh wax job using a bad/cheap wax or something and hten not properly wiping it all off (cause its got blotches of milk in the paint you can see also) ...thats only thing i can think of
looks like the way boyett is going about doing hte 07 tahoe clip is a much better way to properly do it and will look a million times better and not throw off the entire bodyline like the caddy clip did.
Now not sayin i could have done any better .....but i dont own a shop putting work on dispay like that and charging $6K for it either
They said they paid $6,000 just for the parts and not the labor if I'm not mistaken. And the white milky film was from wax I do believe because it was not like that when it was at the show, just the Target parking lot

I think that blue truck was rushed to get done for the show.
If you stood infront of it and looked the lights looked like they were cross eyed and how the fenders and hood met the headlights was pretty bad as well/

Before u say anything, yes i know the driver's side light is crooked and yes i know the grille is a little off...The bodyshop that did it screwed me over by not working on it until 2 days before truck jam...i had to pull it out of the shop early to make it to the show...
