Just wondering if anyone knows if u can order a painted bumper to match the color of your truck to replace the factory chrome or can you only order chrome or primed as a gm part?

You can only order chrome or "paint-to-match" primed.

What about the rear bumper are they available to buy color matched for our trucks?

Nope,And thats the one thing I don't like about the SLT/LTZ trucks,They have a painted front bumper but a chrome rear bumper :D Makes no sense to me,They should both be either painted or chrome (IE..They should match!!!)

I remember on previous gen. "base model" trucks the front bumper use to be chrome,and the rear bumper was painted,That was almost as bad. :thumbs:

Of course I also remember when a rear bumper was an option!!

I really would have like the LTZ trucks to come with painted to match front and rear bumper I think that looks awesome. I guess I'm going to have to paint my rear bumper and get the painted to match grille, but after that I think it will look awesome.

I really like the color matched girlle and bumper combo, too bad my truck is only a LT2. The chrome doesn't look bad I just think that painted looks better.

I'm not a fan of chrome, but chrome doesn't look that bad, I just prefer everything to be painted to match. Yeah, u can only get the painted to match bumper in the LTZ package, soon I'm going to install the painted to match grille to finish the front end and after that I just need the rear bumper. You should install the painted to match door handles and mirror covers and that will really bring up the look of your truck, nice color bro.

      GM Hard Folding Tonneau by REV review

      This is a really late reply but I just found this thread. They won't sell the hinges. I've gone 7 rounds with them. Their solution is to buy a new cover. I'm about to buy a new cover and it won't be a Bakflip. It also won't be from realtruck.com.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, and also pulling heavy trailers or a large camper up steep grades as well as descending grades such as the more rustic off road camping locations and using engine braking with that low gearing as well as soft ground can just suck the power . I realize pickups these days tend to have an over all lower first gear ratio compared to automatic transmission pickups from years back so that has helped a lot in its ability in high range but there comes a point if in four wheel drive the torque runs out at the wheels, certainly with a gas engine. They don't put two speed transfer cases on pickups for a cool factor, they have a function if one needs that massive torque to the wheels that high range can't deliver.

      Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....

      Gas Prices

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.
