Nice truck I love the white. What year was your chevy? It looks like 4 wheel parts has a reasonable price on your door handles.

Thanks. Trying to get the vanity plate approved.

List of wants:
Chrome door handle covers not full replacement just the opening latch
Mud flaps so picks of yours would be great
Types of tonneau covers.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Check out Duraflaps.com for mudflaps.
I bought a set from them and am very happy with the ease of install and the way they look and protect my truck!
Quality stuff.
Enjoy!

well they make exhaust tips with the holes so as not to void the warranty. 4 wheel parts had that and the tonneau cover. Wore gloves to install the chrome exhaust tips because last time I screwed with the end of an exhaust I was permanently tattooed by my motorcycle exhaust. Still have the dam line under my finger. Also got my bed liner sprayed in. ****, this thing is a money pit. hahahaha
