Thanks for all the nice complements! 
To answer some of the questions,
Yes I did put matching MTR/k's on it, and no I don't have much money, anymore:
If I do go bigger, then yes, to my wife's disappointment, I would!
Sorry but Flame Red is all this baby came in, my good, your bad.
As for the Jeep trailer, see it on youtube, never heard on the price.
I would be glad to post some more pictures of the JK and trailer, tonight is its first really maiden voyage on the road, so I will get some more pictures up here this weekend.
As for the "that sure beats my converted S10 pickup box" most thing do, no just kidding, we all have to work with what we can.
Again, thanks for all the comments!

Here is a picture of what I started with.
And here a few more shots of the almost finished trailer.
The front tool box
With the lid open
Inside the box is a false bottom, wife's idea, smuggling box she calls it.
Tongue assemble with the Max-coupler
Shot of the under side, still need to install shock yet.
Still have a few more things to do, but pretty much done. It pulls down the road great, but I really need to get my shocks on to tame it down alittle.
How you all like

Very clean build.. I went camping with the fam this weekend and get this... half done packing the jeep and realized there wasn't quite enough room. Had to take the gd minivan..can you believe it? Such a shame.. so it got me thinking about trailers and the possibilities.Thanks for posting.

Really glad you all like it! I had a chance to load it down with about 400 pounds of stuff and run around with it last week. Pulling great, hardly notice it behind me.
I have been very busy getting things ready with my JK to make the trip. Just 16 days until we are to leaving! Still need to install my side lights on the trailer. I will be doing that this weekend, along with installing an after markert transmission cooler on the JK.
Thanks again.
