If I had the chance I would emmigrate to the USA (Utah) like a shot! I would need someone offer me a lot of money for my business or win the lottery... either will do!
So unfortunately, the JK is being shipped to the UK as soon as the install of the RIPP SC is complete... I hope to have her here with me in Somerset by the end of July.

just as a matter of interest how much does is cost to ship a jeep over and what sort of customs charges can you expect to pay

Freight is but a small part of what you have to pay. There are customs charges on both ends and the dreaded modifications you have to do to make it road legal for the UK, then you've got to get it tested. Then there is duty and VAT. I am estimating all that to cost me the best part of £10K.
just a thought, that bull bar on the aev bumper might be an issue if it has to be inspected. its now illegal to install them over but i dont know what is meant by "now". ie if it depends on the age of the jeep or when it was installed etc
as far as the SVA inspection here's what a guy had to do to his us spec one to pass. (remove underscore from http) it might be useful
