Picture Needed

Do any of you have a good side-view picture of a 4wd blazer with top and bottom trim. I'd like to have the picture to ask for photoshoping to decide whether two-tone silver with black between the trim would look a whole lot better than just a nice silver with both sets of trim. I'm just not sure. Here are two pictures I have, but I'd like to have a nice side-view with the trim. Any help would be appreciated.

At the speed I'm going, I'll probably be able to wait. From reading over at the photoshop section silver sounds like it is tough to do. I think the beginning paint color has to be light. I have no idea about photoshop.
Thanks. I

I had someone just add chrome to a white I found on here to get a idea, they could do that to that silver one for you I think.

I Don't believe the upper trim was an option, but you can use the upper trim for a truck because the piece on the bedside can be cut. I believe the bedside upper trim is two pieces: one short end piece and the longer section can be cut to fit a shortbed. To make it fit a blazer, you simply cut it shorter than you would for a shortbed pickup. I'm not sure about this, but it is what I understand to be the case.

I didn't think that the upper trim was available from the factory either. I thought it was always modified truck trim.

Thank You. Mine was originally that color, but was painted over with that common darker green. Great Blazer. Thank you again. Jeremy.
