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 First Mod on 08 JK 2 Door

Well, I lasted about 200 miles before the mods started.

Installed some Shrockwork Rock Rails on Saturday.

Before.



Picture of uninstalled passenger side.



After install. Sorry, pix could be better.





Next, different tires and a small lift.

BTW, I've got a line on some 255 R75 17's to replace mt stock 16" tires.

Any input? Another newbie JK owner going through the learning curve.

Thanks,

Jim

Here is my order:
1. I went with Tint on the glass done day after purchase.
2. Blind spot mirrors, steering wheel cover, floor mats and removed air dam under bumper, installed front Tow Hooks.
3. Neoprene (?sp) seat covers and factory bumper with Foglights.
4. Cooltech Accessory Mount.
5. New Rubber and Rims.
6. CB Radio
7. Lift... not installed yet

Next... it is a toss up between Rock Rails, Front Sway bar Quick disconnects, and Air Raid CIA.
