More to come from that project.

Stoked to see how this goes! I'll for sure be stealing this if it works out.

Not some of my finest pictures, but you get the idea.

Also, cheated a tiny bit on my fender flare project..



Stock rear door fender flares (door pieces only) from a 4 door. I was able to buy these from a generous lad in the UK. He was parting out his blazer, same color as mine.
When I was looking frantically for taillight guards a while back, I joined a few Facebook S-Series groups.
This guy posted about parting his out. I commented, and a few months later, I end up with these. I paid around 60 bucks shipped.
Notice the part numbers and 'Made in Canada' stamp. I'll take more pictures and post in the other flares thread sometime this weekend.

Don, it sounds better when you use mi over km... Just tell Canada go standard already. Lol

Picked these beauties up today... 2003-2004 S10 ZR5 rims.


Almost cherry.
Found them on a neighboring city's Craigslist. (Des Moines.... 200 miles is a neighbor in the Midwest)
Called the guy, and ended up... He's visiting right near me a few days later. Just picked up today.
I paid 200, and I don't feel bad about over paying. I'm usually one to haggle, partly cause it's fun.
Good bye Jimmy Rims. So if anyone needs some pristine Jimmy Rims, let me know. I'll let these go CHEAP.
2 sets of center caps... These, and the regular GMC logo'd ones.

Got the Jimmy hood put on finally..


Couple o' dents, but better than my old hood.
Which, btw, is for sale cheap. Make an offer in the Omaha area..


Swapped out the washer nozzles from my old hood, kept the same light and washer tubing, too.
But now I cannot get the washer fluid to shoot out... Not sure if it's related to changing the hood. It worked before...?
Probably pull the air box and check on the pump.... Yet another thing to look into.
