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 only had a couple hours to work on it, I still need to put my factory driving lights back in and build a Light bar once my tube bender comes in.

Thanks guys!

I used 6x6x3/16" square tubing, and 3 and 4" - 3/16" flat bar. C channel has to square of an edge for my liking, I used the box tubing for the top and front to give a nice radius edge and less welding.
