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.

I hear ya. I have the windshield lights so using the cowl would have been a little harder. Plus I like the look of the AEV too. The rugged ridge looks nice though. Seems a little more involved under the hood as far as running things to the cowl.

This was really simple and clean inside and out. I figure if I ever need to find another black stock hood it shouldnt be too hard. I may save up for the AEV hood anyway which already has the hood cut outs.

Good luck with whatever you decide.

Looks good thinking of getting one just wondering if there is a power loss I know that there is with supercharger but what about natural aspirated?

Thanks. As of now i havent noticed any loss in power although its only been a day. I would think if anything it would help. You're getting cooler air than whats under the hood and it should be allowing more air in than the stock setup.

Looks really good!!
Was the cutting the hardest part? Could you use a dremel?
After the cutting was everything else easy? Thx
