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.

One of the reasons I got a new OR-Fab bumper with hoop! Hope she's alright.

I thought the deer had survived the wreck but came to find out it was found dead about 2 tenths of a mile away.

My insurance tried to file this under collision.

On a side note glad you're physically okay...go get a thirty pack

Sorry about that bro, but SLC gave you some good advice. I was able to upgrade a buncha stuff on mine by taking it to a local body shop and them working with me.

How come it needed to be towed, was there more extensive damage than the body damage evident from the pictures? I just ask because I hit a deer in my wife's car a while back and the body damage was extensive (actually fairly similar to yours) but we continued on our trip because there was absolutely no mechanical damage other than a headlight and turn signal being out.

Anyway glad you are alright and I hope your JK gets repaired soon!

Sorry about the crash.. I feel your pain though, I had to watch mine drive away on a flatbed once as well, except a puddle took out my motor and trans. I wish it was a deer.

Heres one for the pain...

Lift +heavy duty steel bumper= Less damage. "But Honey if I lift the Jeep we will be safer."
