I drive a 2010 Silverado LT with the chrome package. Personally I did not want the package, I told them I wanted a black silverado 4x4 with the 5.3 and thats what my baby came with. I would like to make it look like the Z71 Plus with the black mirror caps and door handles, I would also like the front end to look like the Z71 Plus LTZ with the black grille and black lower grille piece has anyone had experience painting or buying the lower grille piece or putting in new handles and mirror caps?

Agreed, never heard of Z71 plus, my personal opinion is.... FIND A BETTER DEALER! They obviously dont understand their order sheet.
