Default Blacked out the blazer!

Yup, I finally did it! Here are the pics I took along the progress. Enjoy! (oh, and there is a final pic at the end lol)
















Okay, I did a couple of other things I wasn't planning on doing. I had planned on painting the side mirrors and adding a led strip to the inside of the mirror and wiring it to the turn signals. The strips I bought wouldn't bend and I realized that there isn't much room to fit anything in there, so I took the strips and put them on the back of the grilles of the lights on the safari bar for a little lighting effect when I am showing off (not driving!). They aren't wired in yet, but I will post pics when I get around to wiring in the lights through the floor grommet. Also, I noticed when I took off the safari bar, that I had scratched the underside of the left part under the truck on something. Probably a parking space stopper thing or something. I sanded it down to get rid of the rust and hit the underside of the bar (the part under the truck) with spray on truck bed liner to protect it. It looked really good, I am going to do the same when I get nerf bars. Um, I think that is everything. What y'all think.

VERY nice. Do you have a pic from farther back...like...from the front, but showing the side and stuff as well? I think it looks great

Looks nice, but you may find paint/ primer doesnt like to stick well to chrome.
