Sorry I gave you guys some false info. You can put a 98+ bull bar on your blazer, but you will need to drill new holes to mount it. There is a thread on here about it somewhere. Sorry about that.

That's no biggie if all you have to do it drill a few holes.... I was worried about having to cut the bumper or welding or something like that...

Could only get the bed liner done...got the wrong dash kit for the double din and after I was done the rockers I was about spent for the night...


So...the bed liner took a hell of a lot longer than anticipated but I did manage to get some pictures...I'll take better ones in the morning...I did the rocker panels bumpers and grill.. Took me about 4 hours....masking... sanding...applying....unmasking. Should be fully cured after about 48hours. *I did 3 coats waited 20 minutes between each coat.

Masked



Final coat:



FINISHED:



Again..more pictures will be taken in daylight.

Looks pretty good! What's up with the front bumper? It looks crooked.
