Default Finally did it...

I painted the 2 rear black pieces that are on the side of the rear glass, I always hated it being black, my 95 blazer had them also as all blazers do but being black I've always felt it looked "Not Finished"...

And I did the front bow tie.


The first picture is of the pieces black......

Second is of the bow tie the faded gold.....

Then the pictures of AFTER.....

I got the exact same color as the truck.

There was morning dew on the truck also....

What does everyone think?

Thanks...

I like to match...

I try to keep the blazer as is (not going with crazy mods) but to update it and keep it nice...

1 can of GM cherry red and alot of patience... and cigarettes...

I put about 6 coats of paint on each.

I know with the 2dr's you have to paint them in place. The plastic surround is part of the window. I'm not sure if it's the same on 4dr's though. It looks as though those might come off. If that's the case it would be a better idea to paint them off the truck on a flat surface to avoid runs.
