Default Help me pimp my blazer!

Hey guys, I'm getting my blazer next week and while I've been waiting, I've been trying to decide what I want to do to the truck first. Here's a list of overall:

-Brushguard/pushbar(black with two lights on it)
-BF Goodrich off-road tires-stock size
-Aftermarket rims(I found some decent ones on tirekingdom.com-it even has the vehicle viewer which most sites don't have for the blazer)
-Plastic panshaped front floormats
-Floor protector for the back(flat, not panshaped)


If any of you get bored or just know of a good site in general, can you help me try to find these as cheap as possible? I'm gonna get them as my paychecks allow. I'll even add pictures in my welcome thread as I add them to the truck.

Oh yea-2004, 4 door, 2 wheel drive
If you can find a place that gives free shipping, that's a HUGE perk to me!! I'm a mechanic that works on construction vehicles. While I do have the shop truck to use most of the time, sometimes I have to take my POV, so I'm hoping that this setup shall work fine for me. If you can think of any other add-ons that will make it site-worthy, while maintaining the family truck appeal please let me know.

What color is your interior? I'm thinking of selling my gray formed weather tech mats. Just two seasons of use.

I think grey as well, but I'd have to get back to you on that. I'd definantly be interested in buying them from you though. Do you still have the reciept (for the warranty)?

Yea, several websites I look at say the weathertech floormats have a lifetime manufacturer warranty. Lemme go see if I can find it real quick-I'll throw in a link.

Well, I guess weathertech itself only has a 10 year warranty-which is still good. I KNOW I've seen that lifetime warranty for one of these(just today actually), maybe it was the stores warranty....

"Guarantee - WeatherTech® All-Weather Floor Mats are guaranteed against defects in materials or workmanship for 10 years from the date of purchase, certain exclusions apply."

It all depends on what aspect you are wanting. Are you wanting a more rugid offroad look? Or do you want a more sporty look? All depends what you want to get out of it. If it was up to me I would go with a mild offroad look since it is only a 2wd.

90k5-That's what I plan on doing. I don't want to make it look too hardcore since it IS only 2wd. I just want to keep it nice for the family, but still usefull on the project sites.

Kiwi-I think that's the first truck I've seen those headlights look good on! Good job man! What's that thing you have in the back of the truck. It looks like some sort of floor riser, but I can't figure out what for.
