Just needs some chrome or polished 20x10s or x12s, smoked klearz and it'll be perfect. Such a PITA to clean black.

Finally cleaned off the pollen and treated the tires, can't park in the garage due to the new driveway curing. May also be the first post since installing the new nerf bars last fall. Was going to buff it but after washing it, I think it's good as is.

Have the identical truck, want to do both of those mods. What did you use for the pillars?

Looks good, though black is a full time job to keep clean, but you do it well.

New to this group.  Usually do not post on forums but here is my new to me vehicle.  My first full size truck and I absolutely love it.  Bought back in March of this year it's a 2016 Silverado 4x4 with the Z71 package with only 17,890 miles.  No real mods done to it as I am not a modifying kind of person.  Did get the Range AFM Blocker after seeing all the AFM horror videos on YouTube.  Thinking of getting step sides later has it is a little hard getting in being under 6' tall.  Hope to get a lot of help from this forum if I ever do have problems!

They are actual covers that attach with double sided tape on the back. I got them off eBay, the seller is pillarcovers.

I really like the blue. We almost bought a blue one, but that particular one on the dealer lot was lacking many options. We ended up with black.

Looks totally awesome just the way it is sir.  I wouldn’t change a thing.   I’ve never been a big fan of High Country models, but I mus5 say that is one very sharp looking rig !    Could you please give us some specs on wheel size,tires, lift or level .  Thank you....

Did you paint the inserts of your wheels? I have the same ones but chrome. I like your black ones.

    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.
