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.

Got bored yesterday...

Default Painted some interior parts yesterday...

There's a couple posts on here reagrding this but couldn't find them.. I decided to paint the vent surrounds, glovebox latch, passenger grab bar endcaps, and speaker covers.. Took them all off, cleaned them, lightly sanded, primed, sprayed, and clear coated.. Here's some pics of the finished product.. Easy, fun way to spend a day!!

Thanks!! If I had to do one thing over though, it would be NOT to sand.. The Rustoleum paint I used stuck just fine w/o doing it.. I didn't sand the speaker surrounds or the glovebox latch and it worked just fine, if not better.. Eh, whatever.. It beats paying $150 for an interior dress up kit!! I'm going to paint my gauge cluster tomorrow probably.

Didn't take the latch off.. Just emptied out the glovebox and removed it out.. I taped all around and under it.. Then I traced a penny onto the masking tape and cut it out.. Took the cutout and placed it over the lock cylinder.. Came out perfect.
