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.

Look what followed me home TODAY!!!!!

Default Look what followed me home TODAY!!!!!

A 2009 X Unlimited JK

It's 60 degrees and sunny, and yes, already took the front panels off!

It's right outside of my office window, I can't stop staring at it...

Sharp.

When you get home paint your muffler black. (high heat muffler paint from Home Depot or Lowes) Once you go black you never go back.

Congratulations!

Don't forget to cut a notch in the mirrors to help with drainage.
https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/994561-post/

And the $1 dash upgrade.
https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-write-ups-39/another-dash-upgrade-%241-67-a-42458/

And maybe the side marker light 'fix'.
https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-write-ups-39/marker-light-mod-20860/

Then there is the mesh insert for the grille:

Lots of other good stuff to look at here:
https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-talk-26/mod-hall-fame-your-favorite-mod-76405/

Any plans for 'real' mods like a lift and bigger tires/wheels?

And congratulations again!

Unfortunately no major mods........yet.

I have looked into the drilling of the mirrors, there are already drips from where they detailed today at the dealer.

checking out the $1 mod and the side marker light.

I am going to put a transmission cooler on it as well. Here in Memphis, it gets hot, for extended periods of time. I will be working some out of it and will be some stop and go. Will need to keep things cool.


Edit: Will be going to Home Depot or lowes for 1/2 insulation pronto, Oh, I got to get a #50 torx bit so I can take off the doors!!!
