Re: '97 Chevy Tahoe (2dr/2wd) mild custom

Still haven't got my chirping issue sorted out, but I should have a couple new parts by Monday. If that don't work, I gotta dig deeper. It's a bit frustrating to say the least. I picked up my mirrors but still haven't gotten them installed. Hopefully I can get to that this weekend.

Another frustrating thing is I thought I had 100% original paint aside from the accessories & driver's door that the PO had worked on. A few months ago after washing it, I noticed a hint of red metallic when the sun hit the driver's front fender. Well, last week I further confirmed after seeing another spot. It wouldn't make much sense if the original fender had metallic red underneath, considering the factory paint code is the standard black (8555). Aside from that, the clear is getting really thin above the top body line towards the rear. So, now I'm looking at my options for repainting this fender. It sucks when you start throwing money at things you weren't expecting to. Here's a look at the fender:
