Visually I like it but I wish it was a straight axle.

I think the paint color is what’s bringing most of the ugliness. It’s trying too hard to look like the original. Also not sure what the wheels were supposed to do for it.
I like the grille & tail lights..but that's about it!...
If the top doesn't come off that's gonna be a no for me.
Wish I could find it but they redid a 2018ish Silverado to look like a 79' with the trim and two tone. That was cool.

Good point. I didn’t think out the top, it doesn’t look removable. I also noticed the tailgate is rounded from light to light.
My biggest gripe with big inch "retro wheels" is they rarely increase the size of the center cap. It throws off the proportions. It's like the open slots are the same size as the originals, the center cap is the same size as the original, but now there's all this dead space around the center cap which makes the wheel look weird to me
About the only thing I like is the blue and white.
That was so horrible, that my browser crashed to prevent me from throwing up on my screen.
The top (& the wheels) are what are screwing up the lines. If they would have cut the top off then the rounded windshield would have been forgivable. A nice soft top would be hard on a 4 door though, so topless only.
Those wheels are not helping the look either.
It’s just not good, which is unfortunate because I’m sure it was a lot of work.

Would anyone mistake it for a 1st Gen K5? Of course not. But does it look better or worse than the stock Tahoe? It has steel bumpers and round wheel openings, so it's already winning. Somebody should photoshop it with real wheels and the rear air dam thingy removed.

How did the Blazer name get drug into this abomination.
I can appreciate the craftsmanship that went into it, but more of a retro Burb than anything.

yes it looks worse than a stock Tahoe.
I agree, the late model Tahoe/Burb/Yukons are sexy.
Looks better than all of the 2019-20 pick up line ups available from everyone
