Lol my bad! All I have is a walk around video of the truck, which is too large to attach. So here are some screenshots from that video . This is before I added the red wheel decals.

I really like that red line look. That’s what I have been thinking about doing on my all black one I just got.

Are the black Z71 badges with the red in the Z OEM badges or are they from somewhere else? I was looking to swap my all black Z71 badges on my 2024 TB to the ones with the red Z, but the reviews of all of the ones on Amazon don't look too good.

they offer OEM, the red is also a separate piece but they come an assembled set. i HAD a set of both, and both were removed from BRAND NEW trucks, dealer delivered.

I have tried looking the ones up with the red outline and no luck so do you happen to know the part number for them?

Iirc, they were on the midnight edition Silverados. You might be able to find a part number by VIN. You could look online for a used midnight edition and use its VIN to get the badges at the dealership, or build a new truck on Chevy's website then run a search for available inventory near you. There will be VINs in that search you could also use at your dealership parts dept.

I found a redline edition truck from each year starting at 2019 and up and all it showed me on any of the parts sites are the chrome and red version or the all black version.

I had brought my truck to a local auto-wrapping shop to have some custom Trail Boss logos added to my truck. The guy there had the Z71 badges on hand and recommended them to help compliment my redline theme. He charged me like an additional $30 or $40. But I think you can get them on Amazon.

Nice! It's just hard anymore telling what is genuine GM and what isn't. I put aftermarket black badges on my Canyon I had and none of them held up at all. All of the red lettering on them turned pink or white and the black duramax badges I had faded too. So I'm trying to be picky with this truck and stick with genuine GM badges if I can.

It all seems like the same trash to me. Just plastic trash. The difference is one is cheap while the other is overpriced. I'll leave it to the readers to figure that last part out.

Yeah I agree that OEM stuff is overpriced, but I never had issues with OEM badges fading as bad as the aftermarket garbage and my truck sits in a garage 90% of the time out of the elements.

Sorry for the dirty truck, but I went with the matte black bowties, z71, and trail boss decals on the bed. The bowties and z71's are plasti-dip.

How did you get your front bow tie off to dip?

Hmm...i've never had issues with either fading. I had black badges I paid $20 for on ebay on my Tahoe for 9 years and they still looked like new when I sold the truck last year. I did have some paint issues on a black grille insert I got but unfortunately there was no OEM option for that (or the badges for that matter) so I really had nothing to lose.

Finally gettin around to the chrome on the bowties. Tryin Plastidip for now to see how it holds up. Looks really good so far. 5 coats.
