It looks to me like the front bumper trim is in 3 pieces, separated by the 2 black bumper ends. Does any one know if GM still makes these pieces, and if so, what they cost. I'm guessing not, but what the heck, can't hurt to ask. Thanks guys, Mark.

I had a roll of it from Autozone. Worked fine....for about 18 months....

Cheap at about $30 for a roll that will do your bumper twice.

Will see if I can find the box....

I'm talking about the wide chrome trim. I had thought of an adhesive trim like you mentioned (similar to a body side molding) but since the molding takes a pretty big dip by the bumper guards, I didn't think that would work without it looking crappy. If you did it, and have a photo, please post it. I can't seem to find any used trim pieces, so that is why I asked if anyone knew if they were indeed still available through GM.

No idea on the wide trim

Have you checked here yet?

It may not be there but if it is you can probably get the part number.

Sorry that was no help. It seems to be out of production but I may have found it.

Is this it? Items #5 and #6?

Quite pricey since its discontinued but after searching it also seems like everyone is looking for it.

They are only available from junk yards. They are 3 piece as you stated. I have a left piece with a tiny ding in it.

Yikes, yes that is it. Thank you for taking the time to look. I was hoping they would be $50-60 each, and would go for it.

Might be cheaper to get yours straightened and polished. If you still have them.... They are stainless so, restorable.

Would be tough to make look perfect. Most yards are going to want to sell you the whole cover. If you find a straight set up grab it!!
