Inside / Outside window sweeps - which ones are right (see pic)?

OK, so I'm finally getting both doors back together after the body shop welded in the sport mirror holes, removed the body filler out of the DG4 holes & painted. Onto my question - when I opened up GM factory packaged 1-3893781 (inside fuzzy) & GM 1-3893783 (outside rubber) for left hand side they do not have the chrome and/or stainless steel strip like the ones I removed (which I believe are aftermarket). I also noticed that the new outside rubber is one piece with a notch cut out for the vent window vs the aftermarket one which has what I'll call a rubber "flap" riding on the window glass, which is more like modern cars have. All clips line up correctly and are the correct length.

So, are these the correct sweeps (for a Cheyenne Super)? Did GM make sweeps for the Cheyenne / Cheyenne Supers with the chrome/stainless steel strip or not?

I hope to have this all back together to make it to the C10 Nationals in Dallas as I've been registered since 2019.

Thanks!

They come both ways, either painted or chromed.. Your choice when ordering.. There's a couple threads going on right now in this forum about these seals..

I have seen it stated even many years in the past that the chrome beaded sweeps and anti rattle strips did not come as factory on any trim level. Cannot confirm or deny that myself. I trimmed my last set of reproduction for a better fit. Cutoff wheel works great. They were reproductions I purchased maybe 15 years ago.
