Ok so I ran in to a bit of trouble well doing my christmas shopping last week. I lost my blazer! My blazer is dark blue and that night I swear everyone one was either driving a dark blue or black blazer or trailblazer or some other suv. So I've started looking into personalizing my blazer a bit. The local Parts Source had some decals but they were all on the honda civic scale and just weren't what I wanted. So I'm currently looking online.
First I found these http://webxtremes.com/chevydecals.htm the one for the grill emblem has the autobot and decepticon emblems. I thinking of getting a set but since it doesn't list blazer but it does list S-10 I assume thats the one I need for my 2000. Has anyone bought from these guys before?
Anyone have a decal source they recommend? anything else that might help seperate my blazer from the soccer moms? Apparently I'm not allowed naked lady mud flaps though.

if you're looking into repainting it at all...
i think something like this would set you apart from the soccer moms

believe you me, if I could afford to paint it I would. There is/was a car that used to drive around town here when I was younger that was painted up so that it looked like some had dumped purple paint onto a green car and was letting it just drip down the sides, ever since I saw that I've been wanting to get a custom paint job. Its just not in the budget currently.

I haven't lost my Blazer yet, so I think I'll just avoid Christmas shopping to be on the safe side.

haha...I like the superman sticker. 
...hmm...I wonder what the stripes would look like on it??? Interesting thought. Umm..idk. I'll ask around for you, see what I can dig up. The Auto-Shop teacher at my school is kick *** so he's pretty likely to help. I'll ask him first thing Monday morning.

A quick change you can make and stand out is change its altitude a lil bit, I slammed mine on 18's for a wopping 20 bucks! I got 4 inch tapered drop blocks with u-bolts and then ( which not recommended ) cut the springs in the front and put the shocks back in and it rides like a dream with the frame 6inches off the ground!!!

Personally, I dont like spending a couple hundred bucks when my shocks go out. Are your shocks not stock, gr81?

well where are the pix?
i dont have a problem losing my blazer really becuase i have never saw another one like mine in person, now if a big hummer or a dually or something like parks beside me i have to start looking a lil bit but the color stands out pretty well. you could just get a 10' antenna and put a flag on top that says "im over here" i can almost bet you nobody else in the parking lot will have it. lol

I've been looking for this decal that I saw awhile ago on a blazer. It read -
"I understand the Jeep thing, and that's why I drive a CHEVY!"
I cannot find it anywhere though.

why not just get aftermarket taillights.
or an alarm.....and just beep it and walk in that direction....works like a charm. kills 2 birds with 1 stone.

That's a good point. Maybe if your alarm button thingy isn't working right, you need to get a new one...or a new battery...
