Probably already know this.... But in case.... GM offers black emblems (Chevy probably does too but I haven't looked) ... For both tailgate styles... Pricey though.. Probably more cost effective solutions available.

thanks- whats a body shop charge to replace rear ?

[WhitProcter]

Not sure. Good detailer would also be worth checking into... Lots of 'how to' vids available too.

just saw youtube where dealer took off flares and painted and smoked markers - Looked great - more ideas to spend $

You can shoot light  coats of Plasti Dip on the fender side markers, and emblems also.

VHT makes a Nite-Shades spray on tint.

There are also plenty of YouTube resources on both VHT and how to tint with Plasti Dip.

I've had excellent results in the past with the Testors Transparent Window Tint followed by Testors Clear.  It can be found in small aerosol cans in the model car section at Walmart.  I've probly done a dozen sets of tail lights using these products.  Just do proper prep, apply light coats to achieve the darkness you want, and clear for protection.

Although I don't mind how the flare lights and reflectors look, I would think tinting would be the easiest and cheapest thing to do.

Vinyl applied, subtle difference, but from far and lights off, blends in well with the black...

what vinyl tint?

[firedab]

Not sure what it is, I asked to tint them and my tint guy said he can't use regular tint, needs to apply vinyl.

So I decided to try my hand at this. Quickly learned I am not very good at it. Used a peel and stick vinyl headlight tint. Results are ok, not great, but ok for now. I have a few small bubbles/creases so I will probably redo them another day.
