JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Anyone painted interior parts to match exterior of jeep?

I think they look great. Amazing work! I just had a couple questions. I drive a 07 unlimited X. I am going for the all silver and black look. Just got the fender situation taken care of (Silver Sahara Fenders) next I want to paint my bumpers as well as my interior silver.

First, After you primed it, did you wet sand it or sand it?

Second, Did you sand the doors as well as the interior to the point it was smooth, or is it all still textured. I couldn't tell from the pictures?

Thanks.

I'm pretty sure that is the previous generation of the billet shifter knobs made by RealWheels. Here is a link to their new generation

Yes, First remove the top of the dash (where my daystar panel is) Then removed the two AC heat rings by turning them, then remove the Front Dash, then remove the stereo. The first three pics below is with the grey accents, the last pic is after being removed

Let me you know if you have any questions and ill try to explain it better

Thanks. I found some radio installation instructions and it shows how to remove the center dash, AC rings, top of the dash.

After that though, how did you remove the sides of the dash? Just pull? Or are there bolts?

The grey side dash panels have 3-4 bolts each that need to be removed after removing the stereo. I think one of the pics I posted show one of the bolts
