It’s time to take your Luxury full-size SUV up a notch! Customizing the large and in charge appearance of the 2025 GMC Yukon Denali is made simple with a few blackout parts. For decades we’ve helped hundreds of clients build custom GMC Yukon’s with our chrome delete package. Now we’re bringing it to the revamped 2025 Yukon!
Chrome Delete
The 2025 GMC Yukon got a mild update which modified the exterior styling and reworked the cabin. These exterior updates changed the front fascia including a new grille design along with changes to the headlight and fog light designs. To see the subtle differences between years check out our lifted 2024 GMC Yukon Blackout build. Below you can see before and after we installed these chrome delete parts for the 2025 GMC Yukon.
Starting from front to back we eliminated a big chunk of chrome with a custom 2025 Yukon blackout grille. This grille is fully black unlike the Vader Chrome grilles found on higher trim levels. This darker appearance has a sleek appearance that doesn’t standout like chrome.
Next we darkened the redesigned fog light and front bumper area. This requires an updated blackout fog bezel molding which we installed just above the front bumper trim.
Moving away from the front and on to the sides you’ll find a smaller accent that got the chrome delete treatment. There’s a set of smoked side markers by the front wheels. Normally side markers are bright orange, but by applying a light tinted clear coat they can be dulled to fit the blackout styling.
On the lower door area lies the body side molding which is often color matched or swapped for a blackout version like this one. Moving upwards you’ll find blackout parts installed on the fender vent accents, door handles, and roof rails. In addition, blacking out the Yukon’s window molding makes a big difference when paired with tinted windows.
At the trunk the last bit of chrome to be eliminated is on the rear bumper trim and exhaust tips. The exhaust tips are completely optional of course. Although a durable black powder coat finish keeps them well protected and improves the chrome delete styling.
Blackout Emblems and Badges
Black GMC emblems and badging were installed to cap off the chrome delete. Customizing the factory emblems can make the car feel like more of your own rather than the manufacturers. These GMC emblems and Yukon Denali nameplates look like raised inky black impressions against the black body paint.
Window Tint
To finish this blackout Yukon Denali we gave it window tint. Tinted windows may get a bad rep, but they are one of the best accessory upgrades you can make to any ride. Not only do they look great with blackout trim, but they also offer protective benefits. Window tints reject solar energy in the form of UV rays, and ceramic window tint can block infrared rays reducing heat. Blocking heat is especially important for all black cars like this one. Tint even is recommended by the skin cancer foundation!
Window tint is a solid appearance upgrade that provides some added privacy, but it’s important to know that not all tint is made equal! We only use 3M tint because of their benefits over competing brands. We wrote a whole article about the benefits of 3M tint to help you learn more before making your decision.
Tints are offered from 5% to 70% with the lower numbers being darker. Most folks opt for around a 30% tint. The % measures VLT (Visual Light Transference) which quantifies how much light comes through the film. When you go to select your tint, you need to keep in mind your local laws, so that you don’t get ticketed. We always recommend a professional install for this modification. Poor tint jobs will bubble and discolor over time. Make sure your window tint installer has a good warranty to protect your investment!
