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.

May not fit in with what you are looking for, but I think duplicolor spray-on bedliner is great stuff. All the wheel wells, frame, bumper, rock rails, inside of the hard top, (I'll get the entire outside of the top before I swap it back on for the winter), even sprayed the nasty white covers on my hella 500's. - I use the stuff everywhere.
