Ok... here is the dumb question of the day (seems like that would be a good thread to start... lol).

I know I should probably know the answer to this since I own an LTZ.... but what is the difference between an LTZ bumper and a non-LTZ bumper???

I know some have a receiver cover and the LTZ bumper does not have provisions for it but in the pic of his bumper it looks like mine as best as I can remember (I drive a truck and am seldom home so I can't just run out and look at it).


I think he meant '09+ (or is it '10+?) LTZ. They have a chrome strip on the back of the black "pad" just like the chrome strip on the side mouldings.

Oh... I see... mine is '08... I read in another thread where someome said something about fender flares not lining up with an LTZ bumper but I really couldn't see a difference.

Thanks for the clarification.

I don't know about the fender flare thing. I thought only Z71s had those which would make sense for them to have a different bumper. I'd research it if I actually cared but it's irrelevant to my '08, so I won't. I've considered getting that stick-on chrome trim and lining my back bumper and running boards. I've seen it done with the appropriately-sized trim on each and it looks factory-original.

Z71's are the only ones with fender flares from the factory. We also have 3 holes drilled into the front of the rear bumper for the lower flare extension. That is pretty weird that the LTZ bumper doesn't match up but then again I only pay attention to the Z71's since I cant use a lot of other parts

Yeah, just gonna stick with my stock bumper. Doesn't look better in any way, to me at least. Just glad to be getting that bumper painted on the insurance dime. It needed it anyway.
