Hey all, my name is Reid and I live in Lancaster, PA. I picked up a 2008 TrailBlazer a few months ago, and at that time signed up "elsewhere" (lolz). I heard murmurings about "another" site over there and finally figured out what it was, so I wanted to sign up here.

Its a 2LT and is two tone, Carbon Metallic over Silverstone Metallic (hopefully that's the right color names). It has ebony leather and so far I've only got a few simple mods done - vent visors, 20% tint, plasti-dipped the front and rear bowties (leaving the chrome perimeter) and just ordered 4500K HIDs for lowbeam and fogs from DDM Tuning with relay harnesses today. Only other real plans at the moment are probably a Volant CAI and then have my buddy do a basic street tune.

I've been a GM guy most of my life and have had two Camaros, a Grand Prix GTP and now the TB. Most recently I had an Infiniti G35 coupe that I got rid of when I picked this up. You can see more about my previous cars on my website - Welcome to Reidonly.net.

Here are some pics of the truck when I first got it - REIDONLY.net

And here is the most recent pic with tint and vent visors.

Welcome to the nation! Truck looks great I have always been a huge fan of the 2-tone paint with those colors. Lots of good info and friendly folks here to help out!

Thanks! This was the first one I've ever seen in this color combination. Almost all of the two tone ones I've seen were dark blue, green, or maroon. And most of those had the gold-ish/pewter lower color. When I first saw this on Autotrader, I thought it was black, which I'm not a huge fan of. But then I went to check it out and saw it was actually a nice dark metallic gray over silver and I loved it.

Welcome! Everytime I see a 2-tone I have to check and see if its a NF edition.

Thank you, and yeah I feel the love already. I posted an intro thread "there" and I don't even think I got a single response in 3 months. :no:

Thank you. Yeah, I just recently sold all my gear though to get caught up on some bills, and since it was collecting dust. One day I'll get a nice setup again.

Thanks to all for the warm welcome! :thumbsup:
