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 finally got jerry cans mounted on my XRC and painted some of the interior

Default I finally got jerry cans mounted on my XRC and painted some of the interior

I used the rock hard mounts and had the passenger side shortened just a little. I am having the cans painted but just cant decide what color to go with. Suggestions wanted!!! I also started in on painting the gauge surrounds and dash pieces.





I thought this turned out pretty good.

Also how did you paint your dash? The reason i am asking is I have some pretty bad scarring on my dash that I would like to "buff" or paint out so it isn't so noticable. Looks great!

Turned out great! You can do the same thing (shorten the down tube) with the Rock Hard trail rack. I opted to not shorten the pass. side tank mount as I plan to use the available space but I love how your's turned out! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks. I had scratches all over the passenger side. I didnt sand anything. I just used some plastic etcher first. Let that dry, did a few coats of color match paint and put three coats of UPol clear coat on.
