seems weird that its a LT, but it doesnt have a painted top bumper cover, non painted door moldings, and normally the tahoe grille is chrome in the middle, not black..seems like maybe it was repainted and they put on base moldings or something like that

speedo needle means the cluster is on its way out (had this on mine too)

joe...chill out :)

the front bumpers on these trucks rust...coulda been a rusty bumper from an ex-**** owner who decided to swap

similiarly the OEM moldings do tend to get ratty over the years and he might've changed em for new but didnt pay for the LT ones (painted to match)

I would remove em (looks better anyway)
