Review shared from GM Tailgate Handle; Rear (99-06 Sierra 1500)
Tailgate Handle
Replacing the tailgate handle solved the problem with my tailgate opening with a bump on the road. It was easy to install, fits, and looks great.

Rear bumper
Fit great, easy to install, when I was installing this I was trying to find enough words to write a review so I would get ten dollars off and I think I did it!

Looks like a new truck
Bolts right up and now I have space for fog lights without cutting crappy holes.

Review shared from GM Rear Splash Guards with Bowtie Logo; Black (19-25 Silverado 1500)
Nice looking but hard to find installation recommendations
No instructions in the box and hard to find online. Finally called American trucks and they found a PDF for me. No instructions where GM said to look. On the right side of my truck, the two pieces of the side that were to be 1/2" apart were even and that made it difficult to install that side. On the left side, it was easy.

Review shared from GM Front Bumper Face Bar; Not Pre-Drilled for Front Parking Sensors; Chrome (19-25 Silverado 1500)
Fit Perfectly on my 21' Silveradfo
Title says it all, it was a perfect fit for my 2021 Silverado LT. The hardest part was finding out where all the bolts were to remove the old bumper, but a quick search on YouTube will have you covered.

Easy Install
Bow tie was out of stock for a bit longer than I had hoped. But once it finally arrived the install was super easy and so far it has had no issues with fitment or look.

Review shared from GM Tailgate Panel; USA Built; Shell; Without Camera (14-18 Silverado 1500)
Basic Tailgate Chevy 2018 1500
The tailgate came boxed with one small bent corner that the paint staff easily fixed. Cost of pearl White =$500.00 The tailgate is the old school type with NO BUILT IN torsion spring. I was required to go to junk yard , twice, to obtain older-style side hinges. Then purchased new plastic guides and White spray paint. Electrical and camera went in well and I am satisfied with the complete package. Total cost $1300.
