Added a pic to my profile page with the new wheels and tires. I did not do this part; my wife ordered a Westin "Safari Bar" (black) for my Blazer. She said it was my Valentine's gift. It should be here in a few days. I am so lucky to have a wife like her. Also bought a 102" stainless whip for my c.b. That will be installed soon.
PLease say the wheels werent the sald shooters..... like I have on mine

No, they were the common old aluminum stock wheels.

Jdespain, Those tires look pretty aggressive, how's the road noise? Love the sidewall tread on them!

Butcher a debadge. I only removed "CHEVROLET" from the tail gate so far, but it left a bunch of little scratches that I didn't notice when the area was drenched in goo-gone...
The other badges will be done with a heat gun.
