Hey guys, so for about 3 days now and countless hours I have been sifting through numerous posts about wrapping the front and rear bumpers on my 18. However, I have yet to see anyone actually come back with a great match for the white trucks. I have the GAZ color code for Summit White/Olympic White. I have found  "VViViD White High Gloss Realistic Paint-Like Microfinish Vinyl Wrap Roll XPO Air Release Technology" and the "Avery SW900-101-O GLOSS WHITE" vinyls but have also read that they don't match very well. Any input would be great! Thank you!

The best thing to do is just to order samples of what may be the closest match. 
When I had my summit white, I never found a match but some companies had found some close matches and never mentioned what it was. In my experience, everything either had a blue or yellow hue.

I’ve been down this road also with no luck. At one point my cousin found a match but it was stupid expensive. Let us know if you find something.

Yeah I know what you are talking about. It's a website that states that they can color match OEM paint from the dealerships, I think it's called ColorXLabs. However, for a 5x10 roll of Vinyl it's like $900. If that was with install I'd consider it but that's a crazy price to pay.

What "edition" is your truck. Those are awesome emblems on the doors and center caps of your wheels!

Thanks Jim! It's a 2018 Sierra SLT with the Blackwidow package. Basically, it adds the TruFab lift,tires/wheels,running boards,fender flares, exhaust, tune, and some lighting effects. Don't look up the MSRP it's something stupid. I got this from a dealer I know back home for 47 out the door with less than 4XXX on it last year. It was his and he was trading it back in for a 2500 for the hauling capabilities.

You are very welcome.

Never fails!  Five minutes after I buy new, I inevitably see a twin vehicle.   I remember finding 4 trucks the same colour and similar models to mine in my row of parking at a crowded mall.  My wife would have needed to try a key or look inside for personal items to be able to confirm which one was ours!  With respect to your bumper, I recommend taking a serious look at the Black Widow custom front bumper.  I believe it would enhance the value and look of your truck.  Your stock bumper should be a quick sell.

Funny that you posted this. I found these this morning and have been researching them. It seems they make a lot for the Fords but I can't seem to find anything on our year GMC's besides for the rear bumper. The search continues! 

 

Edit: Found the website... Here is the link if anyone else is looking to purchase these.... https://www.ecoological.com/gmc-bumper-covers.html  ... Thanks again man!

Donstar, haven't seen this bumper you speak of. Do you know where you would order/look at these parts? I did a Google search and all I could find was the SCA website and they just relay you over to a dealership for inventory for a vehicle. Didn't know if you knew somewhere to order parts specifically. Thanks man!

I found a video tour of the SCA facility and there was a section highlighting their custom bumpers.  I'd contact them and inquire where and how to purchase.

Any luck finding a front bumper solution? I have a 2016 Sierra and it's the same front bumper as your 2018. Bumpershellz only has the 2014-2015 Sierra front bumpers. I've got a factory painted front bumper, but it's chipped like a mofo. Looking to cover it up.

I came out of Home Depot one day, walked up to my truck pressing the unlock on the remote and the lights wouldnt flash. kept trying, pulled on the door handle on passenger side rear to put stuff I had in there but wouldn't unlock. Then I head a voice from over my shoulder: "that's mine, you may wanna try the one on the other side, I bet its yours". duh
