Dubai streets all look the same

In Dubai, everyone drives something big. Escalades, G-Wagens, even Cullinans — nothing surprises anymore. My white Cadillac Escalade looked premium, sure, but it blended in way too much. Every time I parked it, I felt like I was just another guy with the same SUV. That didn’t sit right with me.

Finding what clicked

One night scrolling Instagram, I came across LARTE Design. The black gloss body kit on a white Escalade just stopped me mid-scroll. It was sharp, confident, different — but still classy. Exactly the vibe I wanted.

I messaged them the same evening. Told them straight up: I want the full gloss black kit. Keep my own wheels — I already love them. The rest, I left in their hands.

Love Ibragim's Style?

Seeing it for the first time

When the installation was done and I saw my car outside the shop, it didn’t feel like the same Escalade. The contrast of white paint and black gloss completely changed it. The front looked like it had attitude, the diffuser at the back gave it stance. I just stood there grinning like a kid.

Later that week, I pulled up in Bluewaters Island and a random guy walked over:

“Bro, what Escalade is this? I’ve never seen one like it.”

That’s when it hit me — this wasn’t stock anymore. This was mine.

My Escalade has its own identity.

More than just a look

I didn’t do this to show off. It was about that feeling when you see your car and think: yeah, that’s me. The black gloss kit gave it personality, edge, and presence. Now, even in a city full of super-SUVs, my Escalade has its own identity.

Every time I walk up to it, I get that same rush. And that’s exactly why I did it.
