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.

Thanks a lot. It was my first time with a sprayer so it took a little practice in the beginning.

Looks Sweet! Can't wait to see how it holds up.

I'm going to buck the trend I say I don't like it at all, but that's because I'm not a flat/matte finish type of guy.

With all the plasti-dippin going on I knew it was only a matter of time before I saw someone do the whole thing.

I really like the look, but as other have said, I'm really interested to see how it holds up on the trails.

How does it compare to a vinyl wrap in terms of permanence?

Seems like a lot of effort for one rogue twig to ruin it.

I'm interested to see how it holds up in the trails too. But there are many videos of it showing people taking a pressure washer right too it and it not messing it up. Compared to a wrap, I would say this a a lot less delicate. Atleast right now its hiding all my custom pin stripes.

In terms of permanence, it peels right off with a little effort.

I'm with you on this one. Probably took a big hit in the retail value, too. But it's his Jeep and he can beat it up with a rock for all I care.

I highly doubt I hurt the retail value of it. If I wanted to I could just take an our or so and peel it off and u would never know it was on there.

I did it a long time ago to my s2000...I was actually one of the first guys to dip their entire car...

Matte red (real color is bright red)





My Jeep I only have the front grill so far...



They have a ton of stock colors and the custom combos are endless. I think I am going to go with matte gecko green (monster green on their site) pearl during the spring.
