2000 4door Blazer into Xtreme in stages
#11
Some new pics taken today after washing/waxing it
#12
So far i have managed to find the Rear Bumper end caps off a wrecked Xtreme ( which is the hardest part to find anywhere ) and a Drivers front fender flare
All the parts are going to have to be Professionally Painted before being attached to the Blazer
Ebay Parts to buy
1) Xtreme Airdam - $200.00
2) New Bumper - $75.00
3) Airdam hardware - $125.00
4) Foglights - $100.00
Its going to be done in stages and hopefully i can buy everything during the wintertime and then install it next spring.
But i do like the new front end look from how it was once stock.

Looks good I had planned to go this route with my 2001 blazer 4wd I had then opted to sell it instead..Cant wait to see your final prodct..What are your plans on lowering your blazer?Ive also seen the white one on the s10 forum..It looks good but black is an all around better color..

Thanks 420
I thought about lowering it but im actually going to keep it at the same ride height except put on the 16 inch Xtreme 5 spoke rims n tires from the last years it was built ... those rims are for a 2 wheel drive vehicle and will stick out about 2 inches and im going to get a 1.5 spacer for the rear wheels to even them out
this is the style rim im going to get for it

these pics are of the White Blazer that was done on the S10 forum .... he did the shaved rollpan look on his Blazer but mine is going to be like the other in the pic with the stock rear bumper with the Xtreme end cap flares

ZQ8 wheels...Yeah I want a set of those for mine eventually..Powdercoat them gloss black..But for the time being I have 5 old irocs that will suffice once I can get them powder coated.....
Good luck man..Ill be keeping an eye on your build..

Thanks for the Compliments so far but it wont be an overnight project either ... and the ZQ8 rims will set my Xtreme clone off pretty good once its finished
when i get some time ill snap off some pics of the Xtreme end caps i got off a junked Xtreme ... 1 of them is near perfect the other one is going to need a good bodyman to fix and bring back from near death but im pretty sure what i want to have done to it to save it will work

Clean build dude! I kave a 2oo1 black 4dr also. Put a zq8 steering box in her and have had nothing but trouble. Question for all. What yrs bumper end caps dont have the little built in mud flaps. Or maybe Ill go your way?

Here are some of the Rear end caps and Flares ive gotten so far ... i also was able to get a shot of a 4 door Blazer with the ZQ8 rims on it .. the rims set the blazer off nice.
Now the Drivers side end cap has some damage to it as you will see in the pic but for $8.00 a piece at a pick n pull junkyard they were worth grabbing
Ill have the endcap fixed professionally by a bodyshop .. my thought is this ... buy a new stock replacement endcap off Ebay for around $60 bucks and have them cut the damage off the Extreme end cap and use the new one to do like a cut n paste using either bondo or fiberglass to repair the Extreme endcap
the last pic is the Drivers side front flare that i was able to get off the wrecked Extreme in the junkyard and paid $8.00 for it also
as for the stock endcaps they are pretty availiable from what ive seen in the pick n pull yards around here but i do know the ZR2 endcap is molded differently than the rest .. some are plain while others have that chrome strip in them
Id say get the Extreme endcaps if you can find them for your Blazer
