Did it a few months ago. It’s subtle to say the least, but in the right light it pops.

I installed the letters from bdtrims.com  They are very good quality. I ordered Domed style and in chrome.  https://www.bdtrims.com/letter_inserts/Chevrolet_letter_Inserts/Tailgate-Plastic-L

Looks good, fits the trim level well, wouldn't make sense on a High Country but, the Trailboss is kinda in your face so it goes well with that...

I’d like to find a subtle color for my HC as I think it needs something but I’ve yet to find something I like.

Agreed with this. Fits the TB well! Looks good!

White is always a classic...not very subtle though.  Here's my Northsky Blue High Country tailgate.

Have you checked BDTRIMS.com?  They have them in "domed" chrome, which I think would look killer on a HC.

Thanks, but I'd rather go with a subtle color, I'm thinking of a slightly deeper red, maybe.

I bought a set of red and black from BD Trims on eBay. Ended up going with the black on my truck. I've got the red up for grabs if anyone is looking for a set. Still in the package. Easy install.

I have a black HC I’m thinking about just doing the letters flat black. I know it sounds dumb lol but I feel like it’ll be nice having just the Chevrolet letters flat black.

I think that will look excellent, actually. Post pics! 

 

I was considering doing my Satin Steel RST in black to match the other black on it, but felt it would stand out too much. But if a flat satin steel color came out, that would be something I would seriously consider.

They are the ones GM sells made of matte black plastic.

I would say they are probably very similar to the flat ones from BD, but haven’t seen those in person. Mine have no dome on them at all.

      Trim level custom/pro

      By Another JR · Posted

      Are you going to take long trips in it?  If so, try out the seats in the various trims. For me the lower trim level seats were not comfortable.

      I have a 2016 that I bought new and still own. I'm around 129,000 miles now. The biggest problem was a transmission failure about 2 years ago around 95000 miles. No warning, just failed while driving down a back road. A reman GM transmission installed and it's been fine ever since. A few other minor problems along the way. I am in no hurry to replace it. It's been paid off long ago and do plan on driving this as long as I can.   I will admit I am leery about all the additional electronics in the newer models and feel that it is just more potential problems. I think there's actually more than I would have wanted in this 2016 but so far so good. I think even if something major like lifter failure happened, it would still be cheaper to at worst, drop a new engine in than buy a new vehicle.

      OCI, not when but why?

      I’ve own several successful businesses. I’ve bought homes and lived in different states. I’d witness several generations buy homes and survive in different economic circumstances. You get awful sippy when people have different experiences than you do. You live a life. I’ve lived a life. It seems our experience has been different. You can point out generalized statistics. Some people learn how to thrive when the odds are against them. Living in different states does make a difference in a persons quality of life and economic outcomes and opportunities. That’s a fact Jack. It’s my truth, my life. Hard work and long hours the right environment made my families life easier. And yes moving to a different state increased the odds of that happening. Stats are generalized. People who thrive don’t make excuses. They beat the odds. Others get mad and point to those statistics. I guess that’s you. My post pointed out how you helped people beat the odds. Somehow your panties got in a wad. Go figure.

      Good question, I don't remember for sure but I believe it was the HD. I will check and get back to you.

      Point of the post sir was that while both wages and cost are rising EVERYWHERE; the cost is rising faster EVERYWHERE than the ability to buy EVERYWHERE. We're not going down the location rabbit hole. I'm aware of what economic migration is. I've lived in four states including Texas.   It's what "Purchasing Power" means.   I'm not telling you what I think. I'm telling what the government, your government, data shows.   It wasn't an argument. It wasn't a suggestion. It was a statement of FACT. You are absolutely entitled to your own opinion. Your not entitled to your own facts. If you and I were, they wouldn't be facts.    fact /făkt/   noun Knowledge or information based on real occurrences. "an account based on fact; a blur of fact and fancy." Something demonstrated to exist or known to have existed. "Genetic engineering is now a fact. That Chaucer was a real person is an undisputed fact." A real occurrence; an event. "had to prove the facts of the case." The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language, 5th Edition • More at Wordnik   If you'd like to disagree call your Senator or Representative and let him know his departments are in error. But you and I? We are not doing this.
