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.

PD is an excellent source for those that what to create a "virtual photoshop" with color and finish before actually committing to paint.

From my experience, if you have of 4-5 coats, it will not peel up easily. However, I have noticed it you have a finished edge with masking tape, it may be easier to pull up vs. a part that is completely covered all the way on a part.

Not even remotely true. It is very tough and will still save your paint. A rock that hits your paint will chip the paint. Even IF it hurt the dip, it takes 5 minutes to touch it up.

4-5 coats will peel very well. Anything less and you will have a hard (annoying) time.

Jeepcheif: You brought life back to that Tracker. It looks great now.

Also love the pink accents in the dash now. Really breaks it up.

Angry eyes w/ P'Dip Smoke



Grill, hood w/ black and underneath w/ Blaze Blue






My gf's Nitro grill, R/T stripes, wheels and emblems black. Dash pieces in Blaze Pink.








Also did my Mom's Tracker ZR2 trim, grill and wheels.

Before & After





What did you use to paint the dash parts ??? I painted my vent rings with rustoleum pink paint but they turned out kinda rough and not shiney... I used the same paint I used on everything else on my Jeep....


You should do a write up so others can know what you used and how you did it...
I am also curious about the blue on your pumpkin and shocks... Did you remove them to paint them or jsut mask stuff off and paint from underneath it? I am going to paint my pumpkin and going to use stove pipe paint to paint my muffler flat black... I was going to drive the rear up on ramps and paint from underneath...

It looks just like mine whole black matte wrapped. Mine always looks a little dirty even just after a bath. Waiting your feeling about plastidip in this matter.

Great angry look.
