This will be something for the admins to look into. @Jman423
I merged your last 2 posts, before realizing what you were trying to do...
Huh? Strange. I'll check on this with the others.
Ok...now we can all say 'congrats', and mean it!
The only thing in your mod list that I went "huh?" on was the plan to wrap over the wood grain.
If you must (or, rather, the wife really wants it...lol)...I'd pick another type of 'wood', perhaps, but I would not go CF.
IMO, CF is 'tech', but not really 'lux' - and that's what you get an LTZ for
Since you have that black / dk gray interior, perhaps zebrawood - ? Or a brushed stainless (matte, to avoid sun glare). Lots of things will look good with black. But not CF JMHO.
If she *really* wants the bling, get one of the 'real deal' replacement kits for her, and put the actual material in. But keep it a surprise.
Sleep on it for awhile...maybe the stock 'wood' will grow on the both of you
Maybe something lighter like THIS
Check THIS out. The first one that should display - 'Armor Birdseye' - would look really good on yours, IMO.
If not that one, pretty much any of the birdseye or burl. This is but one company / vendor; there are others.
You've got the priorities right - maintenance first. 'Chrome don't get you home', as the saying goes
Just be aware a lot of aftermarket headlights with built-in projectors use really crappy projectors. If you get a set, maybe plan on swapping in some good projectors.
I have a similar style C streak tail light on my Silverado, just with an additional streak on the bottom part. I like them. Plus I like how the brake lights are totally separate from the running light, not just a bright same bulb. Makes it very obvious when I hit the brakes.
I hate wood in a vehicle. This isn't the 1930's. Here's what mine looks like without wood.

Projector is poor as in crap lighting. Narrow beams, or weird cutoffs, or whatever. Basically very subpar optics. Most of the time the beams are narrow and skewed.
Congrats man. Mom almost picked up a 14 black on black on black ltz Tahoe with 60k on the clock. Guy ended up not going through with it. Looks like you now got yourself a nice truck.
Yes it was ~27k out the door if we did it. Our dealer friend knows the guy well and said he knows the entire history and the car is perfect. I don't trust mom with a black car though lol.Thanks. I did find THIS with decent reviews but there is another for the same brand with 3 star (4 reviews) but almost $100 more.. Pretty sure they may prove your point
Thanks. That year and miles, I'm sure they were still asking a pretty high price. >26k? Especially at that mileage, it's worth the little extra price for more options IMO. But that sucks. So far, liking this one a lot better, just driving down the road not using any of the extras. Too bad we couldn't have just started with it.

Had a chance on a tan one but I'm glad we ended up with the black.
Yea. Around here the going for one like that is 31ish. I hear you on certain colors. It has to look right you know? Being the white one is hurting I can only imagine lol. Enjoy your new ride.Sounds about right. And sounds like it would be the perfect buy with known history. Can't beat that. I hear ya on the black vehicles too. We went from one extreme to the other. Had a chance on a tan one but I'm glad we ended up with the black. The tan one just looks weird. lol Good luck with your search.
Easy to say, when you've got kids to wash / wax it on a regular basis...
