Can't believe summer is gone but got a few updates:

Sent the blazer in for rocker/wheel well painting. I tried a patch myself but the rust started coming through. If winter wasn't so close I would attempt again but I'll admit defeat now and let a professional fix it

When it gets back its getting front pads/rotors/calipers installed, undercoated and inspected.

That will probably tie it up for this year. Speaker upgrade will be next followed by wheel/tires in the spring.

The work looks good. I notice you installled the dark lens in the front. I was considering doing that but now that I see them I don't think I will. It's not a look I think I care for. I guess I'm too much of a chrome guy.

The blackout headlight covers are removable, at least the top ones are. The bottom ones are double sided taped on, with or without velcro, depending on brand.
I opted to keep the main headlight covers, and sold the turn signal ones on eBay for 2 reasons; 1. They didn't work with the factory fog lights, and 2. I already tinted my signal lights with a smoked vinyl.

so P0147 has been popping up quite a bit so I decided to go ahead and order the new cat and 02 sensor. wasn't looking to do it right now but I don't want to hold off any longer.
I lost a centre cap as well so if anyone has one to donate please let me know

cat replacement is complete and no more PO147 so this project is now complete. Next up is just waiting for spring for a complete clean up and rims and tires.

Replaced the front speakers with some Pyle brand speakers. Install was pretty boring and uneventful so I did not take any pictures. Door speakers ordered and will be installed this long weekend. The front plastic bumper piece is next on the list then rims and All Terrain tires. List of things to do is getting shorter...

Nice! Always good to hear a list get shorter, instead of longer! I was wondering, do your light covers on the front really effect the brightness at night? I got a set in storage I've been himming and hawing about installing...
