I am looking to de-chrome my truck (24 silverado 2500 LT) and i want to do the bumpers and grille in body color (radiant red tintcoat).  Does anyone know of the best color match vinyl?  I would prefer 3m, vivid, or avery.

thats going to be a tuff color match. if it was mine id look for some black painted w/t bumpers and have em paint matched to that color just my .2cents wourth. then sell the chrome ones to recoup some money.

Make a deal with your local Body Shop , They order Black, then paint your color, Se if they buy yours / trade .

I was able to order my truck with the Z71 Sport Package that included the matching color package, "Pull Me Over Red". I have always liked that look myself. My 2017 1500 had the same matching package too but I will tell you this if you decide to paint the bumpers you should wrap it with clear self healing tape anyway because you will see lots of stone chips. Factory paint is a little better for stopping the chipping but  I haven't had any luck from a paint shops paint job not chipping. 

I have 5000 miles on my 2024 and already have a stone chip. I am ordering the clear tape this week to help protect it.

Have the twin truck and have been concerned about chipping (none so far but only have 900 miles on it). What are you putting on yours? And are you just protecting the bumper?

I am going  to wrap the bumper, the inside of the door sills and maybe the top edge of the hood if it doesnt look to obvious. I need to do some research on what wrap to use.
