Actually, the 1989-91 Blazer, Jimmy, Suburban, and crewcab trucks had a solid aluminum wheel well opening molding without a ridge in the middle. :waytogo:

Yep, stated in post #4. However, I didn't mention the crew cab because I couldn't remember if they got them or not. I know they didn't receive a lot of the updated trim.

Yes I remember the '90 Burb had the smooth wheel well moldings. When we got the '81 GMC Sierra shop truck, Dad wanted to put the wheel well trims on it; he liked how they made the truck look a little bit more "finished". He bought the rears and they fit fine, but the dealer tried to tell him the '80 trims would fit in the front. NOPE! We did finally get the correct parts, but when we bought the truck in May or June of 1981, you'd think they'd have the correct information in the catalog and parts on the shelf....
