pics of the repairs

Well, some of you know that a farktard hit and ran me in my 95 blazer. (he was caught) Just thought I'd post a couple of pics of the progress,,,,This is why I stick to mechanical things, I don't have the talent to do body work like this.



Here's the original damage...As you can tell, (well almost) the fender was crushed behind the brush guard, the brushguard is toast, and the bumper and valance got messed up as well as some of the supports for the 98+ grille snapped in back.

Front left fender repair where the major damage was

My right fender had been crimped at the antennae base when I bought the truck as well as a nasty little dent along the hood line, I took the opprotunity to have the anteanne shaved as well as fix the hood defect...

Of course I got a new OEM 98+ grille to replace my crappy aftermarket one...

And I took the opprotunity to upgrade to the 98+ bumper and valance. (the valance is already black)

Wow :smile: Thats awesome My body shop around here wanted to do my fenders wiper cowl and bumper for 800 and after going to 3 i gave up . Thats so cool

thats crazy.
that kinda work in alberta would run me close to if not over two grand

thats why i run with a 3tone rig because spray paint does the job fine

Well, I figure if I can't have it done right, why do it at all... My motto anyway.

i didnt like the whole red and blue mixture better to have 3 colors of blue

Another one... This is the final wetsand before buffing it out...

Damn, that looks sharp. Wish my body/paint guys were that good.

480 bux for complete job, hood, grille, fenders, repair fenders and hood, bumper, blending. I disassembled it though and reassembled it.

The blazer looks great good body man. price is good also.

Thanx... I'm pretty happy with it, now in the middle of fixing my brush guard... I was going to do the body lift this weekend but my poly bushings haven't come in yet and it's cold and wet, so...LOL...
