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.

Show off your shift knobs!

I love the Drake stuff, it's really slick. I just wish they had a black powdercoat or a gun metal finish.

Like Darth Vader's Jeep as my kids say.

A few months ago they still had the black shifter and transfer case knobs but not the e-brake. I didn't pull the trigger b/c I had other things on my list that came before this, but they may still have them.

Wow! Thanks!

I just found a thread on another forum. I searched like hell for months! Hope I'm not too late.

Is that an egg timer in that picture?
