Re: Roadster Project

The pinch mold is a little different on the blazers than the trucks. The pinch on a blazer is also part of the torsion boxes which gives the blazers their extra support for their lack of roof.

Re: Roadster Project

Well, I did it on my truck but as mentioned, the blazers are different. The one thing is the white color is making it stand out where it won't nearly as bad in black....
