Nice! How much does that nightshades stuff actually block light? Do you use regular bulbs or LED?

Tons of light comes through.

Regular bulbs

At night it almost looks like they are not even tinted its so bright.

Im very pleased with the results.

Nice!

I kinda liked the black hood though

I've been searching for a set of wheels like that for quite a while now. I have the "blade "style" wheel, and I want to do the same thing you did to yours. My idea is to put a small lift on it, an aftermarket roof rack with lights, and baja bar with lights to match. The wheels you have and some real nice knobby Tires. Probably some wheel spacers and fender flares to go along with it.
Your Blazer looks great man!

Thanks man!!!

The black hood thing was cool looking but if i was going to keep it i need it to be painted professionally.

Or maybe try some heat resistant paint and see how that goes.

I can see what you mean, it gives it a rugged off road look at first but can see where one would grow tired of it. I did the same thing to a little Honda I had in high school, looked cool but it got kinda old.. Carbon fiber would be sweet!! If you could find one.
