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 have alot of reinforcement inside and I'm using 6 inch bolts through the frame.

Take a little easy? Who are you and what have you done with Gioll? There's no taking it easy!

Flat black enamel?
If so, I'd love to see how it holds up because I have been looking for a good non-textured paint.

The key is the etching primer...I ran a test using automobile primer and etching with the high performance enamel flat black and the etching primer does not scratch off like the other one.
