I didn't do it, bought the truck this way.
Need to know how I should go about fixing this. It's a longhorn so getting another side is going to be difficult.

Hey I got that same truck, since the end of the bedsides are the same for all the trucks you can get another bedside and cut the end off and do the welding or you could use alot of dent pull welded rivets and go to town, lots of elbow gease, good luck

It's obviously totaled, so you won't be needing the sierra grande emblems. I'll take them off your hands. PM me for my shipping addy. JK.
Talk to the body and paint guys. If you don't get what you need here maybe a mod will move it over for you.
