It's called golf because all the other four letter words were taken.

That's going to make for a nice finishing touch!

If going two tone, what's the 2nd color?

Post up the pros/cons of cutting and fitting the truck trim to fit our blazers.

When's final paint gonna happen? Can't wait, that thing's sweet!

Yep. Orange with white between the upper and lower trim.

2nd color, between the upper and lower trim, will be white (of course).

Pros: this trim was totally free. I haven't seen anyone offer the upper trim for a blazer.
Cons: you can tell the two pieces were cut and 'worked' when you get really close.

Final paint is expected to occur over the week of July 4th.

take some before trim and after trim pics......I just finished painting my truck two tone light green and white............I filled the trim holes because I was planning on using the self-adhesive clips.......I bought all the trim, upper and lower.......but now that the paint is done, I think i like it without trim!

I'll post pics asap, but i dropped my digi cam and it is dead........and the pics are on a HD that also crapped out.......gonna get disposo-cam pics onto disc this week......

Anyway Orange and white will look cool!
