Great video man!!! This was extremely helpful for me with my 2020 Silverado!
Great video! I am painting my exhaust tips and needed a little help on how to take them off. Thanks again!
Great find with the blackout Z71 logo! I gave up looking a while back. Ordering one today, thanks!
Great vid. Just picked up some black badging today to swap mine and this was way helpful.
I'm glad this video pop in on my video recommendations. the only thing on my Trial Boss not blacked out is the z71 badges. I'm going to be happy to see those black. 😊 Thank you.
Nicely done! I ordered my '21 RST with the Black out package that looks great againt the Cherry Red Tintcoat.
Nice job! I like it...was researching the best way to handle the removal and replacement of badges.
I did the same thing but also blacked out the lug nuts on the wheels and the trail boss decal on the bed sides as well. The color on our thick is the north sky blue. With the blue background and the emblems in black they actually look really good. I think with the black it sets it off a little more instead of the chrome ones.
NICE Video! Just got me a Z71 LTX and doing a chrome delete. GLOSS and Matte BLACK. Going to wrap most of the chrome but def getting these black emblems.....Thanks for the video.
I like how you keep your videos under 10 minutes, just ordered the z71 and the Duramax emblems!
Good work man! I managed to negotiate the "dark essentials" package from my dealer on my shadow gray Silverado. I might do the tips some day but the Z71 logos don't look too bad. I'll never understand GM's insistence on chrome.
Looks awesome and this vid helped out a ton. Thanks!!
Great video. Here is a sub for you and I will definitely be grabbing those Z71 emblems. Thanks for sharing!
Looks great on the white color. I have the Metalic Grey z71 which is dark andkind of blue. So the chrome really pops on my truck.
Same exact truck! Mine came with the black badges, and i am putting on the redline 6.2L, LT, & Silverado. Want a little more red because i have black and red Katzkin leather. I must get those black Z71 badges. Those look sick! Great video man, thanks. Oh, a nice truck, by the way.
I to prefer the gloss look on the emblems over the matte plasti dip...I ordered those Z71 emblems thanks man!
Real nice. Looks great.
Beautiful Pickup, I will be buying a custom trail boss in a couple of months, a white one also.
We taped off the inner bowtie (to save the nice pattern from getting lost in spraypaint) and sprayed the chrome with satin black...looks way cleaner now on our white TB LT getting rid of the only 2 spots of chrome on the truck
Great video man, thank you.
Awesome job!!
I enjoy your channel...im a new subscriber...I just bought a 2017 gmc sierra SLT with the 6.2L . Its white as well...im going to plastic dip my badges..I've used it before on emblems and it lasted for years. I did by the black 6.2 emblems.
I just got a Dark Ash Trail Boss Duramax and switched out to all black including a black Trail Boss sticker. It’s way better in my opinion. Good idea on powder coating the chrome tips.
Love the truck 😎👍
I want to paint my calipers now and will do that when the weather gets better.
Nice looking truck, since your eliminating the chrome you may wanna try black lug nut covers also, made a big difference on my trail boss with the black wheels
2019 TB I did black out including tips, tried matte black grille Z71 but you wont see it unless close. I bought badges on ebay and the originals came off easy wih warm heat and fishing line. thanks for the video
Great video!
Have the exact same model and color trail boss. I'm definitely changing the z71 and exhaust tips. I'm going to remove the Silverado and lt from rear.
Plasti dip is great when done right. My whole car is dipped. Going on 2 years now, no complaints.
Looks great.
Looks great
Great job!
I pulled all the badging off my tailgate and didn't replace. I did fill the CHEVROLET with black letters. Replaced my Z71 badges with all black ones, replaced the 6.2 on the hood with black ones but also moved them back closer towards the windshield where I think they should have been to begin with. my truck is satin steel in color so it looks better with all black badges. I'm going to pull the exhaust tips off and sandblast them and paint them satin steel.
Thanks for the video, I just bought a single cab 2024 short bed and have ordered my new fake badges. LOL. I’m doing 20 inch Chevy wheels and 35 inch BFG’s with 2 inch lift. Yep it’s old school but I’m an old guy. ‘
Awesome. Was hoping to find something like this. I just ordered the black out badges today for my 2020 silverado custom that's summit white with paint match bumpers and I can not stand the chrome badges and gold bowtie on the front.
Yep, did about the same thing. My Trail Boss is satin steel metallic. Black looks much better than chrome. I went black on the Z71, 6.2's and LT. I just removed the Silverado on the tailgate. I also removed the Trail Boss decals. I just don't like $2 decals on a $60,000 truck. 😁

The charcoal/black TRAIL BOSS sticker for the back looks pretty sweet on our white TB LT.
Very nice!
Looks fantastic! Just put in my order for a trail boss refresh. Pumped. What did you pay on powder coat?
I have a 20 satin Steele trail boss and I am going to go with plasti dip first...... just to make sure I like it.
That truck is nice 👍
Looks good on the White, I'm afraid the black emblems would disappear on my Northsky Blue. Keep the great videos coming, thanks

Like your running boards, would happen to know how much each one weighs by any chance? I’m looking at either getting chevys boards or aftermarket. Not really trilled on the idea of adding an extra 100lbs for running boards.
Great tips. I have a new 21 Cherry tint red Trailboss and put on the All black Z71 and black Chevrolet domed letters, came out great. id post a pic but dont think you can in this comment section
How did the powder coating stand up on the exhaust tips? I’m thinking of doing it myself. Thanks in advance.
Were your new Z71 badges 2 piece - red & black fused together or black with the red Z painted?
I want to do this mod on my white trailboss. How well do the new badges stick.. I’m concerned they may fall off after a year or so. Especially in Louisiana with 100degree summers!
How do you remove the Z71 emblem in the grill? Is there 3M tape or just the pins?
I'm liking it 👍👍👍 Great addition.
Is it better to just remove that rectangular tip and replace with double exhaust tip? thanks first video i saw on how to remove that tip lol
Looking for the same silverado replacement badges but can't find them with the foam template you had to help with spacing. The ebay link has expired...do you have and maker info because I don't trust myself spacing by hand.
Can I add those exhaust tips on 2021 Silverado 1500 custom trim?
Thank you! I was looking to paint the exact color scheme for the Z71 logo. Glad I found your page. By chance have you found the 6.2L logo in red?

Great video!!! Just wondering if those are OEM GM badges or aftermarket ones that you put on? Also, I see you’re from Minnesota. I’m from Manitoba Canada and our weather is very similar. Just wondering if the adhesive on those badges survived over the last year through winter and summer? Some of the badges I’ve looked at on Amazon have complaints in the reviews about the adhesive giving up and badges lifting off the body in only a few months. I have a Satin Steel Metallic 2021 Chevy Silverado RST that I’m interested in doing the same thing as you did.

Love your videos. On the cusp of buying 2021 with the diesel option. Was curious what your thoughts. My reasoning is gas mileage as I will be using this as a daily driver...freeway miles. I’m just worried about the diesel

Haven’t heard any complaints on any of the groups or forums I follow. If you want a full size truck with the best mileage possible. That would be the one to go with. Im sure there will be a few new things to learn owning a diesel, but a duramax should be able to put a ton of efficient miles it.
Ugh. The Silverado badge is no longer available on eBay. I liked that one because of the template it came with for perfect spacing. Does anyone have any other suggestions?
Great Video. Quick question:After using the Goo Gone, you say to use a non-aggressive cleaner. What exactly do you recommend?

A lot much easier if you remove bumper corner 👍👍👍

rsims7 they did say their was a small chance of it not coming out good. But a thicker metal bumper might not have the same concerns. Plenty of people use the actual vinyl wrap plastic on their bumpers and that turns out pretty nice. Easier to guarantee the color will be exactly what you want as well.
I really need more angles on how you got the ratchet in. Did you remove the plastic step? I'm having a hard time finding the entry point under my truck!

Sorry if it's been asked already buy can I ask what you paid for the powdercoating on the tips ? I have a black 2022 trail boss with chrome tips and was looking at the black ones online, but there is a powdercoat company near my house that I had considered asking. And if I understood you correctly you said you paid under $200 for this complete chrome delete project ?

I tried and it doesn't do that for me, are you sure you don't have other stuff in your cart? I know they sell them in packs for bigger jobs like wheels, so make sure you don't have that in your cart. They don't actually ship from amazon, so they will tack on shipping even if you have prime. It does not come with the clear spray. There is usually a "frequently bought together" option on that page that will have the clear spray, and a surface cleaning/prep solution.

What about a black or carbon fiber hood guard to protect the exposed front hood lip from stone chips? Great job on the rest 👌. The cool white paint really makes the black accents pop. 👍

your links to ebay do not work ?
I used plasti dip on my z71 logos and it took me wayyy to long but I made my z71 logos pure black. Not red showing up on mine so I personally like the look better but Jesus christ it took forever. The only badge I have left to make black is the rear badge and I ain't plastidipping that one I'm just gonna buy a black one with a red outline. (Chevy bowtie custom package) and I'm gonna remove my exhaust tips and use a high heat ceramic coat spray, and change all my lung nuts to black by buying new ones

Two things I hate on the new trucks...the fake exhaust tips that arent even connected to the pipes....and the placement of the badges on the tailgate . They should be at bottom of tailgate. I would delete most all the badges especially the tailgate ones! It does look better though with the black tips if you go that route.
I don't know why chevy/gmc did this .. I mean the exhaust is right there..... why not connect them
