I looked into these special paint colors, they do come direct from the factory, but I couldn’t understand why some had the weirdly painted front fenders either.

 

Couple guys on her ordered their trucks in the “shock” highlighter yellow. Definitely a stand out color.

Are the corner trim pieces plastic? 

 

If so, it's likely because  the body may be painted before they are attached, and the trim supplier only produces in the 'main' colours, and not in the SEO colours. 

There are currently abut 20 SEO colours listed for the 1500 Silverado.

(a bunch of them are not available on reg cab)

Front-end isn't even painted correctly making me think it's an aftermarket paint job.  Either way - eww.  Looks like it's for a road construction crew.

Nope, its all Chevrolet. 

 

From the order guide

Paints, solid, Tangier Orange
All normally body colored non-sheet metal parts will be black including front fender extensions, cab spoiler on Double & Crew cabs and LT trim door handles. May require extended lead time.

It’s definitely a unique color?!?  The thing I do not like is the front fender painted black. Should just have it all orange. 
I will say this, there are days that I long for a unique color of a vehicle because EVERYONE has a black truck “kinda” like mine. Now I know I customize it/ personalize it but from a distance many look the same.

Might look odd from side view but it looks fine from the front

The black extensions, bumper, grill, and cab spoiler I could handle. They can be painted to match.

 

The sunroof would be the deal breaker for me.

What wrong with a sunroof?

It's a hole in the sheet metal that lets sun in. We get enough of that through the windshield and windows down here. I would pay extra not to have one.

 

GM is having issues sealing the vertical glass on the rear windshield. No way I would trust a sunroof.

That dealership should pull the front fender pieces and paint match them. Other than that I like it. GM offers such boring colors for most of their lineup. Between that, wanting to be all electric, and ruining classic nameplates like Blazer, I'm starting to lose my patience with them.

I like it, should have a set of white Rally Stipes going over the hood, roof, and ending on the tailgate.

Apples to carrots..... To each their own (especially with this color) but I've had sunroofs on every vehicle outside of my Trans Ams with T-Tops.  No issues with the sunroofs, but you want to talk about leaks ?.  Get a T-Top car

      Fluid Change Questions

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There would be one way of determining the quality of the factory oil although probably more than a typical oil lab test, and that would be to draw out some oil from a new truck and send a sample to a lab that could do a more elaborate test of the oil. The issue with too little oil in the diff may not be the lack of lubrication of the diff bearings and gears themselves ( although a lack of oil volume for cooling ) but the wheel bearings because at some point the oil would be too low to properly get onto the spinning axle or fed along the axle tube. That was the claim by the local dealer from a couple of trucks in recent years that had the wheel bearings fail and they figured from lack of sufficient oil due to a severe underfilled diff and some of the bearing material made its way to the diff and it got damaged as well so the axle housings were just replaced on warranty. But your right that if the diff is over filled by whatever margin that it causes more churning of the oil than is desirable and that is no good either and can cause a pinion seal to leak. Also old oil I believe can tend to loose some of its properties like antifoaming and another good reason to change the diff oil every so often.

      I would be surprised if the diff's were not filled (with the cheapest gear lube) at the axle factory before being shipped to GM.  If you ever watched them building trucks they install the axles and all suspension parts with the frame upside down and then turn it over before its time to install the engine.     Too much gear lube in a axle can be worse than not enough especially with a lower quality GL where is get whipped up with entrained air (foam)  weakening its ability to lubricate.

      This is the 6.6 gasser section of the forum, you should either delete or modify your previous post as it is misleading for anyone looking for factual information on their 6.6 gas engine.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      Well....I've done my first intake gasket. Probably wrong, but...we'll see?   Ultra black on the china walls and 1/4" up onto the sides of the intake gaskets. Permatex High Tack (couldn't find Gaskachinch) on the head side of the intake gasket. I read wrong and it says you're supposed to put it on the mating surface of the head, not the gasket. Hoping it's like a PB&J sandwich where it doesn't matter what side the PB goes on so long as there's jelly. That crap is messy/sticky and I got a dab or two on the intake port openings, tried to wipe it off. Hopefully it won't be a big deal and will only aid in sealing.   Per instructions I left the intake (top side) of the gasket dry except for a light smear of RTV around the coolant ports. Wiggling the intake in there was a bear but I had help to free me of surrounding wiring/stuff but I was basically able to set it straight down lined up with the bolt holes.   I did not think to wait until the RTV skinned over but there probably was 5-10 minutes while it sat before installing the intake.   Bolts finger tight first. Then, followed the Chilton's manual pattern to snug them to 15 lb-ft.   Waited a little over an hour, and then did the final torque in sequence again to 35 lb-ft.   Yesterday I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and got my new "nut and bolt kit" (fuel lines) installed. Damn GM used security torx on the spider, which I don't have, so I got scammed at the local HW store for an off-brand security Torx bit set.   The new driver's door mirror arrived yesterday, so, there's a chance this thing could be running and road legal tomorrow? I don't want to get my hopes up.   This will be my first time stabbing a distributor, too. Although, lucky me, someone else marked the old distributor for removal previously, I did see that. (Someone's been here before!!). Engine is still at TDC so it *should* be just a matter of transferring the mark to the new dizzy and rotating it into place.
