I took a look at GMpartsdirect.com and there was no distinction between the 1500 and 2500 rear bumpers there either.

Very nice work!
2011 Silverado, Ext Cab Z-71 5.3, 6L80, Airaid CAI, Magnaflow cat-back, and a little tuning by me and HPT.

Gone but not forgotten, 2002 Victory red. The quickest lifted 4x4 AV in the US in it's day.

OK, so I picked the bumper up today in Champaign. Now to wait for the weather to get decent enough for me to install it! I can't wait.

He still had it after almost 2 years?

Yep. He was nice enough to meet me in Champaign; he lives almost to Chicago, on the IN side.

The way I figure it, this real bumper cost me about what another bumper cover would have cost me, and I end up with something that won't break so easily next time.

I do like the look of it. :thumbup:  Can't wait to see it at Bratfest this year. What made you go digging up this thread and contacting him after all this time?

The split in the bumper cover got a little worse sometime this fall. The zip-ties broke, I suspect, sometime when I was driving around up at the farm and dragged the bumper cover crossing a ditch somewhere. I decided it was time to do something about it, and went looking for this thread.
