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 don't see the point in putting pretend soft uppers on, but hey, if you love it, that's all that matters, what I think doesn't.
I get what you're saying. Like I said, I like the way the half doors LOOK. That's why I did it. If I want more open air, I'll just take the doors off.

I would do the b-pillar.

I was actually thinkin' about painting the doors the same way but with real paint. I had to wait for my half doors first and then do all of them at the same time. I do have a black Jeep and I still think it will break the color. top is matt body is not.

back on your Jeep.

totally do it.

if you think about it. the back side of the b-pillar is black! so it's really not bad

I say get on it, mask the line and spend some time this weekend

Thanks for the advice. I'm pretty sure I'll do it. Almost everyone has said it would look better black. I'll post pics when I'm done.

i think it would look better black pillar with the doors off than it does with the doors on and a red pillar. def got to paint it. otherwise, thumbs up on an original idea!!

Is it real Line X? Did you have it done or do you work for a Line X.

I LOVE it. Dont do the piller though. I like it the way it is. I plan on doing the entire JK in color matching Line X someday.
