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.

Default Cost To Look Good...?

I've seen a lot of great looking Jk's, on this site and out an about, one thing i always ask is how much someone has put into their rig, just for curiosity, I wanna see what some gets for their money and individuality. Please post some pics of your jeep, how much you payed, and some comments.


I'm still in school, but I've managed about $16k so far, and have another $8k in planned investments yet to come....

Wheels, tires, suspension, and labor...I'm about 6.5k deep so far, and it's only the tip of the iceberg...

My "Official Mod Sheet" tops out about 7K. It could (will) easily surpass this with Pro Rock 44s on the wish list.

Did you do the work? If you did the work then you're spot on. Some people have to have the work done either because they don't have the time, or knowledge and want it done properly. Labor costs are a mofo.
