the dash nowyou can see the cd player below the screen and the heater controls in the glove box
I can't take credit for this idea I got it from a guy on car domain LiftedS10Blazer (http://www.cardomain.com/id/LiftedS10Blazer).

I will be shaving that grab handle above the air bag it's kinda pointless since there is one above the door.
I will be finishing the door when i get the stuff I need. I like how plain it is because iI can add an arm rest later when I have a chance,and if I decide after that I dont like the design I can change it to what ever i want and I dont have to actually deal with the door panel just the arm rest.

not my cup of tea, but awsome creativity....does it have a lift on it in those pics or is it still stock??

no lift just stock ZR2.

Iknow it's not a lot of peoples cup of tea, but alot of people also think it will look import but that is not my goal im actually going for a hot rod style twist kinda. I eventually want an aluminum 5 or 6 round gauge bezel, bullet tail lights (like a 50's style caddy or something), dual round headlights, classic style billet rear views, & classic style upholstery.

i know it might sound odd but ive never seen a new gen blazer mixed /w a hot rod. Hence the old school color I want.

well its been a little while but I have done some work I pulled out my screen since I couldnt find a place for my xbox but I did put in some round a/c vents and am in the process of moving my window controls to my ash tray their behind my shifter right now. I have also started on my third set of door panels. pics coming soon.

Stay tuned!!

DIY herculiner autozone roll on

its basically rubber I did try duplicolor first but changed because I wanted the texture but the duplicolor I think would have actually been alot better if you spray it on it was hell to take off with a wire wheel on a drill and its actually hard
the herculiner gets nicks pretty easy (for what it is supposed do be for) and now it has bubbles and their rusting and it can be peeled off

but remember my truck gets pretty hot and it is loud inside the rust and the nicks are why I am going to put carpet back in

but I am definately going to use the duplicolor on my rocker panels flares and bumpers

sorry for the links, I tried to put them straight on here but I couldnt get them to show up?

I got them out of a limo at the salvage yard, I also filled in the sterio hole I always hated how they look kinda like they dont belong.
All I did was cut up some old door panels and epoxied the parts on. I used some bondo to smooth it out and painted it.

I think it looks awesome, but don't worry the paint isnt finished, mostly because I havent seen another s series anything with round vents.

next up is my door panels. I gave up on my fiberglass ones (got tired of dealing with the stuff) so I went to the yard and found some base model ones with no carpet or fabric. Now I am in the process of filling in the creases and smoothing them out.

I think I liked your dash better with the screen in it.
Definitely different.

I liked it but the place I had my sterio wasnt very good and my heaters vaccum lines were getting pulled pretty tight, and I couldnt find a good place to put my Xbox :D

I might put it in this bezel if I can find better places to put my stuff.

I like those round vents. The new dash looks a lot better. Good to see you got rid of the orange color[:'(]... What did you use to paint the 4wd Buttons and rear wiper switch?

I just used black rattle can, primer and adhesion promoter. but I sanded them clean now their clear and I actually finished sanding and smoothing it now I just have to wait for painting weather.
