    Hi all

    A bit off subject but as most YGGers seem to be US based I thought you may be able to offer me some links to good looking accessories and mods for an Escalade. I'm thinking of importing one to the UK and want to trick it up a bit.

    Thanks

    To quote the great Jay Z....

    "I'm young enough to know the right car to buy yet grown enough not to put rims on it."

    I'm not all into the modding of a car like that. The only thing I would do to an Escalade is get a set of stock 20" Escalade rims that come on the new 2007 models. None of this 26" bull shit that destroys a car like that. Perhaps a TV in the dash, black out the windows and just roll it. But that's about it :)

    When you're ready to buy one, let me know - I'll hook you up.

    Same. All that stuff just makes it look ridiculous. Simple is the loudest statement.

    If you get a black or silver escalade the only thing I would recommend is black rims and black tint.

    Put your money into the interior. A TV or two, satellite radio, iPod integration, etc... Make the driving experience better for yourself, not the envious people on the outside looking in. :)

    I agree with Travis. Trick the inside since that is what you will be enjoying the most, not the outside. Hit it with a dark windo tint and some nice looking rims. You will still turn heads if that is what you are after.

    Thanks chaps, was thinking just some nice rims (not spinners!), tints, and maybe a grill mod, then spend the rest on audio visual treats.

    Before you ghetto-fie a new Escalade, why do you consider waiting on the new M3

    umm.. i disagree with all of you. Not only does "pimpin" your car add extra value, it sick with the hunnies. Dont just black your windows... take them out. Add some shark fins to the roof. Maybe a tribal paint color. 32" inch rims.. actually forget the rims.. tracks! You want all terrain... tracks are the shit. Dont forget to take out the shocks. Stiff is the new soft, feel the road. A car isnt cool unless it makes your ass numb. Hot tub in the back. You're all set. UK babes will dig "dat shyt".

    Alex...that is by far the funniest fuc*in thing I've ever heard on YGG. We need to put that up in a blog post or at least submit it to digg. I'm dying of laughter as I type this.

    Holy frickin' smoley man...nice, very nice.

    BTW Parent - a nice grill isn't overkill, in fact they look pretty slick.

    Forget the grill on your car. Put a grill in your car. George Foreman a few steaks while you're driving to work in the morning. Mmmm, mmmmm.

    Now I am cleaning coca-cola off my monitor. Thanks. I was warned about the first pimping post, as I browsed ahead, but I wasn't expecting the grilling. I just wasn't.
