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.

What was done to your JK this week?

Looks like the skid is installed incorrectly. Get your $ back.

Need a better pic, but the black piece over the front of the skid is wrong. Is that the factory plastic skid over the Skid Row?

I just called Skid Row to ask. I guess it was intentionally put that way to give some play to accommodate other bumpers that might need the play. Have to confess, I think it's fucked up looking to leave a finger's width between the front of this new plate and their original plate. I checked the photos on their site though and the way it is depicted on their product page turns out to be exactly the way Elias 4WD installed it. Odd product. As I noted on another thread, if I had known how expensive it would be to do this arrangement (over $400) I would prolly have opted for a different vendor line.

You're right and I agree that you should be able to see it. Now that shot was from below on my back in my garage so it might look a little higher but you're right that it's a shitty look. I'll go outside and post a couple other shots.
