Oh, and before you buy steps, check your local CL or FS section here. Dealership charges like 500-650. I've seen them on here for $300 or CL for $200.

I have a set of chrome 6" oval steps for a crew cab I'm trying to offload...

I've got the stone blue all terrain. Chrome handles and trim, I'll still do black wheels when the time comes. I've come around to the chrome trim on the side, for now. If I had gotten a regular SLT, I would have gone black bumpers, black wheels, and paint match the mirror cover and handles.

I really like that color....oh, blue is my favorite color. Very classy.

Post more pics of your truck please. Side shots and other angles. Been debating those wheels.

Only pictures I got right now. It's getting a heavy detail right now so I can take more picture then.

My 2015 deep ocean blue High Country has much too much chrome for my liking. Of course, I come from an 2003 Silverado SS that had no chrome at all. All Arrival Blue Metallic with silver painted wheels.

So far I replaced the window sill moldings with black and the chrome door handles and mirror caps with a set of painted ones off of Ebay.

I still haven't found anyone who can get off the mirror caps without breaking the tabs. The Ebay seller obviously can as the painted caps are off of a new LTZ according to the description. The only way I can see to do it is to somehow take out the mirror glass and release them from the inside of the mirror body. The Ebay seller sent some removal pages from the Helm factory service manual and they were totally useless.

My next step is the chrome body side molding. I just received a painted set of 2.5" moldings from Dawn Enterprises. I had these on the wife's '10 Terrain and they are really nice quality.

I've debadged the sides of the truck, removing the huge High Country emblem and the 4x4 sticker on the side of the bed.

I do have chrome factory side steps and the factory chrome wheels. I don't think I'm swapping them out anytime soon, mostly due to cost. If I had ordered the truck, I probably would have gone with the factory black side steps.

Do you have any pics of the debaged/demoulded in Deep Blue Ocean? I'm debating whether to take mine off or not. TIA! Chris

I took some DSLR pics which are home on my laptop. I can post them later this evening.

Current (and final) state is: black sill moldings, color matched mirror caps and door handles, black factory rectangular running boards, black factory 22" Rally Edition 6-spoke wheels (CK162), and color match 2.5" body side moldings.

Nice!

I what did you have to do to color match the mirrors and handles? Trade/buy a different color and re-paint? Did you ever consider scrapping the side moldings?

I found a set of painted mirr caps and door handles om eBay. Seller had multiple listings and said they were removed from a new stock LTZ. I assumed it was a dealer that upgraded the truck to chrome trim.
