You can find them on Ebay. I know they reproduce them but I dont know if they are quality parts.

Right, it's a tailgate band. LMC used to have them for about $400.

Re: Looking for the name???

I got mine off of EBAY.

I've seen them listed as:
tailgate band
tailgate trim
tailgate panel
tailgate cover
tailgate insert

Re: Looking for the name???

i think the stamped word "CHEVROLET" below the band is sexier..
it's allot better then having vulgarities like "FORD" or a "H" (honda)
orr even worse "toy" or "yo" on the back =-)
