Re: Bumper removal
Yep, you can buy the plastic ones by the bag full. just search here and you will get the old and new part numbers. Beware, they did change the part number. Make sure you find the updated thread.

No, doesn't have the washer on it. That is just the rivet.

The factory rivets are metal, and can't be reused. My truck didn't have any of the plastic washers, but could have been removed before. You should be able to remount it without any washers, but if the bumper cover needs to be spaced out away from the support to have a straight finish, you can use plastic washers/spacers. Also if the rivet holes are damaged or enlarged at all you can use them under the head of the rivet for more strength.

Re: Bumper removal
you need to use the RV117 on the rear and front bumper... and RV118 on the rest of the truck. make sure to keep the o-rings that are with some of the stock rivets.
2 packs of the RV117
1 pack of the RV118

Looks like it could be stock. As Dave said below.
I thought they were all metal from the factory. Good to know, not that it helps me out any. haha. I hate my trucks previous owners more and more everyday!

Re: Bumper removal
Can you take a picture of the washers, as well as provide dimensions if possible?

Re: Bumper removal
While I am still on the topic, I am trying to salvage my black GMC letters from my grill. The appear to have a non removable fastener. It looks press fit. I typed sonoma grille emblem removal in google, and nothing really syclone or 91-92-93 era. All the next generation and its showing 10mm hex.
The one link I found show this http://www.newgmparts.com/parts/199...eid=1164439&diagram=GD91350&diagramCallOut=10
I am trying to remove something along the lines of that minus the hex head and ability to be removed.

There are metal "nuts" that self thread onto the plastic. Be careful not to break off the plastic when removing the nut.
