Can I ask you something?

Why haven't you changed out the fog light bulbs to match your new headlights?

I just bought a set of Silverstars for the fogs and I'm doing an ion conversion to them to make them yellow. Those yellow bulbs sucked.
 
Sure am, yellow works better in the snow and rain. Also I've upgraded the fog light bulbs from 881's to 893's so they are running at 37W now so they are brighter.

Lets just say I'm a confused mini trucker...I like the tuner style.
 
hmm. I am not to sure I aprove. (like it matters) If they are a bright yellow I suppose it would be ok. I'll have to see.

Haha, true :D
 
The yellow lights blew up, now I got Silverstars in the fog and I'm going to put yellow ion film over the lens to make em yellow. I'm still not sure on the next mod, I'm thinking maybe some different tail lights.

Id keep the lights white, yellow lights are too common.
 
Not on mini trucks, I've only ever seen one other Blazer with yellow fogs and that's because he saw mine and did it. I hate being like other mini truckers so I'm always trying to get something new.

Hmm, I see. What next? Huge spoiler on the back :lol:
 
You're going think I'm kidding but I looked high and low for a decent looking spoiler for the truck, I wanted something along these lines. I've only ever seen one other truck with something like it and it was awesome looking.

Well I agree with you on that one, play Underground 2 and its obvious. I personally dont mind being rice, just get what I like.

Btw that Focus is cool :)
 
Ya people razz me all the time about my truck, but really I don't care, it's my style.
 
Ya maybe, but it's my hobby...I don't consider my truck the best Blazer out there, I don't even consider it that good, but being a college kid and limited access to stuff trying to do a huge project is a little hard right now.
 
Yeah I understand, the school sucks most of the money out of you. I dont even want to know how much it will cost me to go to university...

Maybe you can work on the truck more when you graduate and get a decent job :)
 
There are serious fitment issues with Xtreme roll pans, everyone I know that got one had had major problems trying to get it on because of the trailer hitch. But it does look awesome I must say.

Rollpans?
The thing that smooths/flushes out the rear bumper. See my above pic.

Blazin, I forgot that you tow sometimes, and so your hitch is probably important to you. The wing you posted would complement the existing bumper. Just don't get that "middle wing" lip thing below the rear glass! I like the nice round curve to the rear glass and that would spoil it.
 
I recently got a job at a Chevy dealership. We've got a nice TrailBlazer SS on the showroom floor that hauls some ass.

Oh, I see.

BX, how about get a chrome exhaust tip if you already havent done so. I noticed that on the picture in second page you didnt have an exhaust tip so yeah.
 
I have an exhaust tip for it, but I'm waiting to find the right exhaust system first.
 
Sometime this summer I'm going to get a system up an running on the truck.
 
My problem is I can't find a sytem that isn't overly loud, I want to be able to drive down the road and not go deaf or make my neighbors mad when I get home late at night.
 
Spin Tech mufflers are the closest to an open pipe at high rpm's, but they quiet down a lot when you are idling.

Everyone typically does Flowmasters or Magnaflow, both of which don't flow as well as a Spin Tech, and the Spin Tech will be quieter than them at idle (but a lot louder at high rpms).
 
Flowmasters suck, every 4.3L I've heard with them makes them sound like they have a hole in the muffler. I've never heard a magnaflow though or a spintech. Borla sounds good and so does Gibson, but they are way to expensive.
