Default LOTS of stuff!

well i have done alot, but not all of it was done today, ive just been..well...lazy lol but everything was done in the past week or so.

First of all, i installed LED tail lights! LOVE THEM!! PIA to install though! (no instructions and alot of guess work, they are hard wired into the tail light pig tails) But the look GREAT! the running lights are the bulbs and breaks/turns are the LEDs

Day time:


Day time: Close Up




Running lights:


Brake lights: (taken from same spot as the other pic, SOOO BRIGHT!)


Reverse lights: SUPER BRIGHT (notice the license plate LEDs)


Reverse close up:


I also installed ERG SlimLine In-Channel vent visors, LOVE THEM!!! they look great! And i scored them cheap on Ebay!

Before:


After:


Front view: (SO SLIM!!)


Then i installed the Ultra White LEDs for the license plate, very clean look

After that i put on a Bikini Bra from LeBra. LOVE IT!


I then replaced my headlight bulbs with Xenon Super Whites (MUCH BRIGHTER!), and while i was at it I realigned them, they were pretty out of wack!

Before: (stock bulbs)


After: (Xenon Super Whites)


I also put on a Missouri State Decal, got to rep the U!!

Along with painting the bow ties on my center caps, color matched the body color, looks AWESOME!

I also removed my Nerf Bars, the winter hit them hard and the worsened the rust bad enough that i had to remove them. Once removed i noticed that the passenger side was filled with wet sand!! talk about rust cancer! i would have never been abe to fix them! Previous owner was a lil rough on them it seems.

and TODAY I got my oil changed, Pennzoil Platinum Full Synthetic. I also ran ythe codes for the check engine light (which came on today). Code read "Throttle Position Sensor" which would explain why the Blazer bogs down if you goose it.

Held off on replacing the sensor, I'll wait for next pay check. But could tell a difference in the fresh oil, SOOO SMOOTH!!
