chickened out????? :rotfl: DOOO ITTTT mang!!!

and i'll be doing my rims.. just not "murdered" style... they make a Smoke color plasti Dip.. more or less grey to gun metal grey... when i can get that, then i'll do my rims... the black just doesnt look right on the imperial blue metalic.. IMO at least... i've emailed some companies that make the special colors.. still waiting to hear back...

i have my sources :raspberry:

thats one of the first things i thought of for the beaSSt.. i know the regular TB's dont have the grilles like we SSS folks do... but i also did it because my hitch was a little rusty as well... now its all nice and new again...

where the hell was i at when this s#!+ came out on the market.. i wouldve done this years ago...
 
Drove it to and from today....tomorrow, depending on if it really rains or not, I will be giving it a bath inside and out.
 
Lol thanks man!! I was worried about how they were gonna turn out. After I get my wheels powder coated black everything will blend in nicely. I need to repaint those stupid bumper caps. 1st wash paint came off:eek:
 
SS lost a bumper cover bolt fixed that and this one should not come off.
 
Finished off my Plasti Dip escapade.. came out awesome if I may say so myself...

Oh, I didn't mean to leave you out Juan, the Plasti Dip looks good. I'm about 1/2 drunk now, so don't hold it against me.

Body color would good too BUT my headlights now match my tails and with what iKve gt planned for future mods it'll blend right in. And no they don't make "grey" night shades.

Just a simple one today, installed a Stant 10511 locking fuel cap. Since I've recently become that guy that hassles the teenage neighbors for going past my house at 3 times the speed limit, I figured better safe than sorry
 
I sold the destroyed radiator and condenser and front sway bar from the totaled trailblazer to a metal salvage yard for 27 dollars. I then went to one of the local u pull it salvage yards and picked up a full set of the interior lights from on 02 and the center lights from an 05 for 11 dollars. not a bad day at all.

Sounds good. Guess it's safe to say something happend to the paint on those parts.
 
made deliveries to crete, il and lowel, in. 150 mi round trip
18.7 mpg there
20.7 mpg back
not bad considering about 2-1/2 weeks ago towed a half loaded
6 x 12 trailer from rock island , il and got 10.8 mpg
with a mix of cross and tail winds
