Before you buy them, think long and hard about what you're getting yourself in to. Goto the diy section and look for fender flares on a 4 door. Since yours is a non-z, look at all the work warthog put into getting them to fit. I know yours is a 2 door and his is a 4 door, but since their both non z's, it'll be some work. If you decide to go through with it, good luck my friend and make sure to post up some pics.

I've tried ebay, junkyards, and craigslist. I know it'll be some work, ain't that the reason we all have trucks, to do things to em and have fun doing it? But anyway I just want some fender flares, someone told me the Zr2 flares are bushwacker but everywhere I look bushwacker doesn't make flares for the second generation blazer.

I was curious about this as well. I asked a local GM dealer parts department... they quoted me $650.00 per wheel.

Not worth it.

Thats insane, someone has to make flares for blazers. It's one of the most popular off road vehicles why wouldn't they have them?

Yeah, bushwacker hasn't made fender flares for the blazer in quite awhile. One thing you might want to check. I think rottidog still has flexi flares on his. Check those out.

Something like this.
