I picked out 4 pieces, all the rear side skirt/fender flare pieces I need. I signed up on the website, and sent them all my info. We shall see what they say when they write back.
As I write this, it's past 9 at night in Sweden.
Hoping to hear from them tomorrow morning!

You might not hear from them until late Sunday our time, after the weekend.

If it works, I'll be looking to buy some from them too.

Exactly, it's 11pm friday here now so expect about 60 hours until you'll have chance of an answer!

Oh, btw, there is possibilities of getting gen 1 fender flares here in sweden as well, www.blocket.se is our "craigslist"
CHEVROLET S10 BLAZER https://www.blocket.se/vi/82855781.htm

For $550, offer them 300, arrange with a junkyard to collect it, usually they do it for free! tell them to rip of and send you the fenders and they can keep the rest?

If only I knew some of my relatives in Denmark...drats.

I will shoot them an email...see what they say.
I've been looking at some blazer videos from Indonesia, 6-bolt wheels look cool, but not one single blazer seems to be 4x4?!? Looks quite ridiculous when a 35"tire blazer gets stuck in 2 inches of mud and spins 1 rear wheel! Dont even seem to have g80 lockers...
But damn, they are mad fabricators!!

Hmm, I have ordered my rear fender flares at LMC, but that's for a 1994 S10. Is it so difficult to come by these for the later models?

Forgot about the weekend somehow!
Not sure why, but all of those Indonesian blazers are 2 wheel drive with a 2.2 liter engine, I believe. With all this lights, flares, and such ... You'd think one of them would have 4x4 at least.
Error_401, it's very difficult to find flares for a 4 door 2nd gen. There is really only one place right now... Jungle Fender Flares. I did see 1st Gen pocket style flares on Amazon, though ...
