Re: new paint..80 2wd blazer
Love your truck.
I'm not sure about availability of the 80 grill emblem. If you post something here in the classifieds you'll likely find a decent one sooner or later. For a get-by-for-now, take the grill off and remove the center bowtie. You can mask it off and paint it for few bucks until you find one nice enough to suit you. That's what I did. Keep the updates coming, that's a beautiful K5. |

Re: new paint..80 2wd blazer
Nice truck, This is exactly how I want to paint my K5 and my truck for that matter. Do you mind telling the paint codes/color.
I also have a grill like that (Yours is in better shape it looks like). It has a 76 or 77 emblem on it. It hanges over the plastic shape molded in the grill but looks fine when its installed.

Re: new paint..80 2wd blazer
that is one really nice looking blazer there. I do like the blue/white color combo. I really like the stance too.
