I like it, but that trim piece around the windows stands out too much. I’d personally prefer that blacked out.

Personally not a fan of white or black big SUVs. This would be my last color combo choice by a wide margin.

Haha I read a stat a while ago that something like 90%+ of Escalades were white or black. It’s what the people want apparently but I’m not one of them either.

Could be a Jeep or Suburban; nothing interesting.

Yep... I feel that way about all the color options except silver.

Until you mentioned it, it didn't bug me. But now it does, to the point I'm like how do I get that "wrapped" off during PPF. Maybe it won't be so obvious with the El Cap.

Blacking out the trim made a huge difference in my wife's 2020 Model 3. I can't remember the name of the company, but they had very affordable pre-cut pieces and I put on the 3M blackout strips myself. It wasn't too difficult to apply.

Exactly what I was thinking it would do in my mind. Hopefully I can find the same items for Rivian or the shop can do it for me.


Curiousity, why the front black handles instead of matching?

Simply because I didn't think of it and I was so desperate to get rid of the ugly chrome. I think the company from whom I bought the pre-cut strips were only selling a complete blackout kit at the time. Not sure if they offered the color matched door handle strips, but I know many companies do now.

But now that you mention it, color matched handles would have looked good. We're even :)

I checked this thread, gave it a few days then came back and I like it even more

I understand the wagoneer comparisons, but I HATE the side profile of the wagoneer. I'm guessing it has something to do with the B & C Pillars.
The thicker Rivian C-Pillar is makes it look so good.
