Tailgate Band - Brushed Aluminum Black - 81-91 Chevy GMC Blazer Jimmy

Description

Tailgate Band – Brushed Aluminum Black – 1981–1991 Chevy GMC Squarebody Blazer & Jimmy

The Tailgate Band – Brushed Aluminum Black is a premium OE-style exterior restoration component designed for 1981–1991 Chevy and GMC Squarebody Blazer and Jimmy models. Developed using all-new AMD tooling, this tailgate band restores the correct factory appearance at the rear of the vehicle while delivering the refined fit and finish expected from Auto Metal Direct premium restoration parts.

On Squarebody Blazer and Jimmy models, the tailgate band is a highly visible exterior detail that helps define the rear styling of the truck. Over time, original bands often suffer from fading, oxidation, dents, or incorrect replacement. AMD’s reproduction tailgate band addresses these issues with a brand-new component engineered to match original GM specifications in profile, width, and mounting geometry.

Manufactured from high-quality aluminum, this tailgate band features a brushed black finish that closely replicates the original appearance used on late Squarebody applications. The finish provides a clean, upscale look while maintaining an authentic OE-style presentation. Precision forming ensures proper alignment across the tailgate surface for a factory-correct fit.

This tailgate band is engineered with pre-drilled mounting holes on the back side for both Chevy and GMC emblem configurations, allowing restorers to install the correct factory emblem as desired. This dual-application design makes it suitable for both Chevy and GMC-branded vehicles without modification, preserving originality and flexibility during restoration.

As part of AMD’s premium Squarebody product line, this tailgate band reflects the brand’s commitment to accurate reproduction, durable materials, and restoration-grade quality. Unlike refurbished or universal alternatives, this is a vehicle-specific component built from the ground up to meet AMD’s OE-style standards.

This tailgate band directly replaces multiple GM factory part numbers and is supplied as a complete solution for restoring the rear appearance of Squarebody Blazer and Jimmy models. It is an ideal finishing piece for exterior restorations where detail accuracy and quality matter.
