First you'll lose your mind

Awesome mods will bloat your credit limits
Acting like a crack addict, refinancing your home, farm out the kids......
You'll cry yourself to sleep, stuff like, must get new rims.
Lift it skyward or drop it like it's hott.
Important questions like, polished or chrome, will shadow you day and NIGHT.

It seems to me that the general painted the buckets to the z66 but not the z71.
Just looked at brian's av, http://www.chevyavalancheclub.com/index.php?action=gallery;sa=view;id=2160
I think Brian changed his.  :dunno:

Easy fix for the time being.  I hate the sun shining on them as it changes shades.

Looks real good Mick, imo I think I would have left the handles chrome though just to break up the blue or at least tried them that way then paint them if it didn't look right but it still looks good.

I think the cladded had painted buckets/handles because they already had enough black with cladding.
Cladded trucks look cleaner with a strip of solid color including mirror caps/door handles.

That changes if you have a WBH or paint your cladding to match body color. Chrome handles/buckets/mirror caps can accent chrome wheels. Black handles/buckets look good on a WBH with black wheels.

It's personal taste but I have no problem giving you a  :thumbup: or  :thumbdown:

I've got a 06 WBH and mine are painted. Do they come from the factory painted?
