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.

Maybe puy the flames drafting upward like they're coming from underneath the hood Also some little puffs of smoke going up the right side of the tailgate above the exhaust. While your at it, get some pinstriping to do a false crack in the windshield. Might as well make the mods realisticAlso' I think a CARAVAN V-6 POWERED logo should be embossed somewhere as well

I actually like them, and the sizing looks good the way it is. Dont think it will be horrible of the doors are off or anything.

I actually like the flat black too. Looks kinda mean flat black behind the black fender covers.

NAY. I think flames on any vehicle look kind of dorky.

Something discreet, like a slightly contrasting paint or finish, would look really cool. Something that you could only tell when the sun hits it, for example.

Other than that, it works for the mirthmobile:




If anyone with a Deep Water Blue did flames like this I would bow down...

Wow this is quite the controversal subject isnt it? Well I have a plan for the flames but will have to wait until i can afford it.

I understand its not fast. Flames dont mean its fast its just a look. I wouldnt find something more industrial but it would cost more for vinyls or an airbrush job.

Good to see everyones replies and thoughts though.
