Project: Ripcord
I would like it to look a lot like lenny's ride when i'm done, but i think i want to limit my trail lights to the brush guard... I think for the basket I have an idea that could pan out and look 'different'. hell worst case senario it looks like total *** and i have a bunch of holes drilled into my basket
Here is a shot of my partial face lift project that i have doing and hiding from prying Canadian eyes.... not done and needs a little touch up but making progress.

Lund Interceptor bug deflector bed lined.
Every thing I do makes me hate these lights just that much more. I think i'm gonna track down some stock jobs soon...

Hey the front grill looks sweet black, paint out the chrome headlight bezels & that will change the look of the lights
. The spots would look awsome if you cut them into the airdam on the roofrack
.
Now I see why what you were doing was such a secret!! DAMN that looks good Curtis. Lose that silly bug guard and you'd have a sweet looking ride on your hands! Love the blacked out grille. Much better. 100% improvement
.
You need to paint the rims now, and as foxxie said black out those lights. Then you'd have a BA (or BAMF for you Dane Cook lovers) ride on your hands!!
. It's coming along very nicely.

the only chrome on this thing will be the door rocker tirm if there is no gun metal left over after i redo the wife's summer wheels.
As for the grille i still have to sand out all of the grass stll stuck in it from the fall. the head light bezels are on deck. I will try to get the tow hooks at the same time. I will need more UC though. one of my cans was plugged and i used 1.5 of the other 2 on the roof rack, grille and toning down the shine on the skid plate. .5 cans should get me through touch up and final coat of the grille. I should get 4 more cans for the rest (light bezels, hooks, antenna, brush guard, frame rails, differential, wheel wells)
As much as i would love to cut out slot in the air damn, i can not. it pivots down so i can load long things (lumber) on the rack between the slots. I was going to mount the lights UNDER the front bar so they sit under the air dam but abocve the cab.
in this pattern: \.\ |.| |.| /./ ... and 2 in the rear
Alex, bug guard stays, and the next step is to get the splash guards mounted. You will probably love those too Alex.

Too much chrome
. The lights need to be blacked out too.
So not only do you have the old man/family/soccer mom/grocery getter 4 door Blazer (no offense to all you 4 drs...it's a joke!) but you insist of throwing a fugly bug guard on it to make your truck even more geriatric?
I can't believe you call your truck my trucks big American brother
. The lights need to be blacked out too.
Curtis, love the grille, but I must agree with Alex, LOSE the bug guard its hideous. Even the lights arent that bad, but blacking them out would be sweet. You did a good job hiding it too lol, not you wont scare away everyone you approach with your grille.
NOW you need a new sig too
Alex jump on it. Make sure to add his wifes amazing custom door work in the paint.
