    Grilles for 08 equinox

    I'm currently looking for polished grilles that will fit my 08 Equinox, and i just want to ask if anyone here has tried installing them? Did you encounter any problems? I found T-rex grilles from 4wheelonline here T-Rex Grilles - 25% Off | 4WheelOnline.com I'm open to other brand suggestions.

    2008 Equinox Sport AWD. new owner here

    Nice photos showing off your rig, looks good. :) To address corrosion and rust on rims, you can wash it with your usual soap and water, use detailing brush or a wire brush, then apply rust proof coating. I read up some instructions here, might help.

    Leather cleaning?

    I've used lexol, but lately i find meguiar's gold class leather spray is a good alternative too. Read abt leather care tips here, pretty helpful.

    20" ss rims on 2013 nox

    Nice wheels. I've seen a couple of black one with a white body that didn't turn out well, but these actually worked.

    Speaking of roof racks, really considering quality and easy installment. I've yet to get one. Taking note of this.

    install a roof rack

    I've seen a safari Surco rack. Are you going for a rugged look? Also depends what you intend to load on your rack. In any case, i believe the brand is durable. I've a buddy who got one so i think it's good.

    2016 Equinox

    Looks good. I also think HIDs are the better lights, been hoping they turn up with HIDs on newer models. But it's a long shot.

    Just Washed/Waxed Terrain

    Very clean and sleek. Just keeping clean makes it look classy already.

    Welp I'm an Idiot.

    Yes, use all purpose cleaner (lots of foam) and a detailing brush to scrub it off, worked for me. I used Meguiar's gold class trim detailer to get back the shine on the plastic.

    That's exactly what this thread did, remind me to give my rig a good cleaning. Time to wash and polish her up, well, in a bit.

    Metal on the front?

    I know you've got enough people telling, but yep, it's for tow bars. Still not such a bad thing to have just in case.

    Window Washer Fluid Leak

    Seems like you have a hose issue. If you just purchased it, your dealer should do something abt it. I'd call them and take it back.

    What do you think about those grilles for Equinox?

    Nice. Those look sharp. I think it looks best with a dark SUV, the metallic grille works in contrast with the black.
