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.

Default Home built New front Bumper

Well almost done,I have to cut the holes in it for the driving/fog lights and make the hoop for it. I think I'm going to Line-x it for the finish. What do you think?? I will have to try again with the pics.

Looks good, but would have to see on the jeep to see the finish fit. Too high/Too low and Too wide/Too narrow of the hoop makes a big difference IMO. Definitely Line-X.

Looks good, now for some detail drawings and a bill of materials. What did you use AutoCAD or something like Inventor? Either way, dont stop at the bumper, do the rest of the jeep.
