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.

That's what I'm thinking of doing! Just not the fenders and mirrors.. I personally like the contrast.. But wow!

seriously looks really good. you should see a significant difference in terms of cooling the interior.

I agree. With no offense intended to the poster of the uber clean silver four-door, I think leaving the fenders black lends itself to a more utilitarian appearance consistent with something you take off-road. Melikey the painted top though, looks sharp.

I have been looking into doing the same thing.

wow eosandy - you really did paint everything! Your rig has kind of a Mercedes Gelandewagen vibe to it
how does the paint on the rear bumper hold up? Mine flexes a lot, but i use it as a step quite a bit.

Hey Pylot7 and Littlejon - check out jkJason's top - he did the same thing you guys are talking about - that is probably what I would have done if my Jeep wasn't white.
