Well, I've always wanted myself a ZR2 Blazer, now I have one. koo-koo-kachoo, I am the walrus. LOL

I've been a lurker for a while now, so I figured I'd introduce myself, and my "new" truck.
I'm Eric, a 35 yr old from a small town 1/2 way between buffalo, and Rochester NY.

My truck is a 120k mile 2001 ZR2, in black. You'll see that the PO removed the nerf bars, can anyone here tell me what exactly were they based on the remaining brackets? I REALLY want to buy another set to put on there.

Also, I intend on repainting the flares,getting a nice roof basket for her, installing some lighting on the brush guard, and MAYbe some for in front of the above-mentioned roof basket.

And today, the Manik brush guard that the PO installed on it is getting a rustoleum rebuild:



Results to come........
