Creeper Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 Long time lurker , first time poster. Like the title says, I'm wanting to get rid of the chrome trim. anybody have a part number for the piece under both windows? Don't know if it would be better to swap out the chrome bits: mirrors, handles, & window trim for oem pieces or just have them painted? Any help would be appreciated. 1
1kwik72 Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 If I looked these up right I believe this is what you are looking for. They are the black moldings without the appearance package. looks like the fronts retail for about 45 bucks and the rears about 50 LF pt#20964064 RF pt#20964063 RR pt#20963927 LR pt#20963928 Craig
jay15892 Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 Ill swap you the black window trim off my Silverado..
Swazimoto Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 Cool truck. I am also going to eliminate all chrome on my truck. I originally was going to order all black replacement parts or paint the existing. Now I am leaning towards PlastiDipping the chrome parts. It seems pretty good for this application and you can always just peel it off and go back to chrome. Go to you tube and type in plastdip. I am even doing my AT wheels just out of curiosity. If you are like me that should costs you about 5 hours of your life. My truck is still not delivered but I have a shop lined up to plastidip straight away. Let me know what you decide to do and please post pictures. Murderer!
fondupot Posted November 22, 2013 Posted November 22, 2013 Just plastidip it and call it a day. Probably cheaper.
Creeper Posted November 23, 2013 Author Posted November 23, 2013 I see. Plasti dip seems pretty popular. Wonder about the durability with an automatic car wash? Anybody know how to remove the mirror caps and door handles?
Swazimoto Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 Apparently after this stuff has cured in the sun for a few days it will withstand a decent amount of abrasion. On youTube I saw a few videos where guys plastidipped their entire vehicles went off roading and pressure washed the whole thing. It actually held up. It is nota major effort to have it redone or touched up either.
clayp Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 I am interested in a DIY plastidip on my window trim. Does anyone know how to R&R the trim?
Swazimoto Posted November 23, 2013 Posted November 23, 2013 If you look on you tube there are examples of how to tape it off. Looks like that is the way to go. You won't have to worry about any removal damage. You only need to really worry about the window side being precise since you don't want plastdip on the felt. 1
cansled Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) Are the chrome Sierra window trim and the black Silverado window trim interchangeable with one another? Exact mounting wholes, hardware, etc? I know a few people on her are going for the blacked out look, but I have a Silverado Double Cab and want do the opposite. I want the chrome moldings on mine.

verywhitedevil Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 me too.. i want to do the exact same on my black crew cab.. i think they direct fit but have been looking for confirmation myself.
thewhitestallion Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 (edited) I'm pretty sure they are a direct swap. I have the sierra chrome trims and would be willing to switch with some one. We could overnight ship them to eachother* so we're not driving around with them off for a long period of time. Pm me if interested. Edited January 18, 2014 by thewhitestallion
cansled Posted January 18, 2014 Posted January 18, 2014 I would be willing to do the same, but it must be a Double Cab....not a CC. Anyone?
