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.

Halloween! Show what costume your JK is wearing

Thanks!
I bought some white plastic corrugated roofing material from the home depot and cut, masked, then painted (rattle-canned) it black and peeled the masking off. I used cheap double-sided sticky tape to attach to the front grill so I can easily remove it later. The plastic sheet corrugation fits nicely over the grill, very close to the same size and shape needed.

The sheet from the ' depot ran just under $20 and was almost 3 x 6 feet (or maybe it was 4 x 8, I'll check it later)... enough left over so I can make many more.

Extend a couple of the upper teeth, and add some 'evil eyes'

Heh, I did think of trying to make the outer teeth closer to the middle with more red extended down into the grill to give it a more rounded mouth, but didn't like the extra black mesh area on the outside of them. I plan on trying some other things later like the "evil-eyes" headlight mod, too.

Should have made the 2 outside ones on the top and the 2 outside ones on the bottom longer. Looks pretty good though...

That looks awesome. You should look into doing the evil eyes look. Its pretty easy, and would look great with the teeth.
