Thanks Eric.

Popped a line for the lower belt molding. Brothers' actually has a helpful video on YouTube for this. I got the fenders off a truck and the holes for the truck badging match up with the holes for the K/5 Blazer emblem. The 4 Wheel Drive badge matches up with the later engine badge location. We will have to drill holes for the engine badge under the K/5 emblem, but will pull that template off the old fenders. It's been raining here all week and they were just outside and wet.

The Assembly Manual shows where to put the CST door badge, but I just pulled a pattern off a truck at the salvage yard.
