Better put some locks on those wheels…
Geez, who'd want those "nasty old things"?
If absolutely forced to, I'd be willing to take them away for a token exchange of compensation.
You interested in selling them?
I use that rig sticking out of the receiver to take the trash/recycle cans to the street 300" away. The wife bought that for me before we paved the drive and believe me in the Puget Sound area things get pretty wet/muddy in the winter months.
300"?
Quite the trek!

This guy is looking for a set. Advice Needed - Will these ZQ8 Wheels Fit my S10?
I would just have to buy others....I think they are sharp and all but I've always like the Cragar SS wheels of old. I have a set of them on my 1st S truck; a 1983 S-15 GMC, had the 2.8, 5 speed and NO options. $7,200.67. Inlaws paid for a after market A/C, I put a topper on it and a AM/FM CASSETTE Radio with the factory 4' X 10" speaker holders that mounted behind the Nader bolts (bolts that the door latch catches) for a neat look. Got it Z-barted too.
Yeah, we got 2 wheeled recycle cans and 1 oversized wheeled trash can.300"?
Your paint number is part of your VIN. Any Body shop or mechanic should be able to help you get the paint numbers.
PHOTOS ,pics, pictures we would all love to see your truck. I love the wheels, that come on Zr5's.
What color is it???
Hank
Based on the posted photo, and a web look up of '04 S10 colors, I'd surmise that it's
39, 392, 39A, 9792, WA9792 | Indigo Blue Metallic |
EDIT: please disregard this - I misread the post and was looking up the body color, not the fender flare, which was the actual question. My Bad.

The closest match you'll find for the ZR5 flares is Rustoleum Midnight black metallic. It's not the same color as the bumpers, but that is the way Chevy built them. I have ZR5 flares on my CC and it is a real close match to the original color. There seems to a short supply of it at the moment, so you may have to shop around to find a can.
To some:
For those that don't know and that's prolly most of the forum.
I painted vehicles and equipment for the USAF for 16 years so I know about body paint codes and VINs. I do not think the color of the fender flares are listed on the RPO sticker or contained in the VIN. IMHO the paint on the flares isn't listed where the general public can find it. I thought maybe one of the forum went to a paint store and got the store to use their machine to analyze the color and write a recipe to mix the paint. I'm sure most of you have seen this done for wall or house paint at the big box stores. I imagine some folks go for the close Rustoleum Midnight Black Metallic spray can paint as a quart of automotive paint is crazy expensive; like over $100.00. I'll use the Rustoleum Midnight Black Metallic.
Those of you that have painted the fender flares; did you just clean and scuff the flares to prep them or did you go to the auto paint store and get the stuff (chemicals) to prep the plastic substrate?

No problemo.
Blue metallic, I'm sure there is a sexy name for it. BTW did you guys know womens clothing styles 3 years prior to the current year determines what colors the OEM use on cars and light duty trucks?

Nice truck.
Thank you. I wonder if I should put a 2" lift kit under it. What's your Opinion?

For looks or function? I'd leave it alone and just enjoy it.
