Congrats on getting it back, I love the nice simple paint job! Look very clean that way. My vote are the tbss
Thank you sir, I appreciate it. A lot of people seem to think I should go with the tbss wheels. Does anyone know of any NBS suvs with them in a chrome 22? I haven't had much luck finding any pictures

I wish i could have gotten back my 91 camaro. By the time i tracked it down it had went through 3 different owners and the last one wrapped it around a tree. Be glad you tracked your truck back down in one piece.

Sorry to hear that. I'm glad I got ahold of mine before it got beaten up too bad.

Here's a before and after of the bumper/signal lights I replaced. It's crazy how yellow the old ones got. I guess it's to be expected considering they're fairly cheap. I'm going to try to keep some wax on these ones and hopefully they'll last a little longer.

Take them back off and have a local shop shoot a few coats of clear on them. Helps keep the cheaper plastic sealed from the elements so they last longer.

I thought about that also. I might have my stepdad go ahead and do that when he paints the other parts.

With your paint job I think these would be a winner.......

Nice find! I've been looking for a couple weeks for a set of the sierra replicas in black chrome but it seems like they're all sold out. I definitely love the look of black chrome but didn't realize the tbss reps came in that finish. I'm not very familiar with the PVD finish, any idea how it's different/how it holds up?

No problem...my work is done here lol. Not sure on the PVD finish but others might. Factory Reproductions is a good company...Tony(@NORCAL SS ) uses them I believe....he can get good prices on wheels...possibly even these.
