Dropped the 'maro wheels off at the place to get them powdercoated. I should be able to pick them up at the end of the week or early next week. I'm excited! lol.

^Can't wait to see them.

I ordered two blazerforum.com decals from here. $26 shipped. (a little cheaper if you go with the cheapest shipping option) I used the font under 'heavy fonts' called action force, and the decals in silver with a white border.

Here is what they will look like.

2" tall by 20" long.

It looks like it. It doesn't weigh much more than the factory one cause it's aluminum, but it's 1/4" thick and it has supports for the main bearing caps. I got it from summit racing. Here'a a link. Summit Racing SME-8510400NL - Summit Racing® Manufacturing and Engineering Differential Support Covers - Overview - SummitRacing.com

they have 3 identical ones, that one (no logo), one with the Summit logo, and a TrickFlow one that look like they were all made by the same manufacturer and they are identical in price. (NOTE: if you buy this cover you're going to have to take a file to it as it doesn't have provisions to allow the fluid into the holes for the bearings, there's plenty of material there but keep that in mind when ordering it)

Soooo because it's too cold out the paint dried funny, oh well nobody's gonna see it anyway. Gonna install it tomorrow, Installed my new liscence plate lights today. The only thing that worries me a little is the metal shavings in the diff, not a TON of them but enough to make me worry a bit.
