Notices
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 cool! How difficult was it? Do have experience doing this or are learning on the go?
Please keep us posted.

Black forest green is one of my favorites, I'm kind of sad you are covering it up. However, the wrap is friggin awesome, and you can tell you took your time. Take pics along the way and share, you'd have a great write up, especially for the difficult areas like the windshield frame and such. Despite covering up black forest green, flat black looks awesome and you will have a unique set up.
By the way, how much did the 12 yards cost you? I played around with different options, and many were spendy as of a few years ago.

Installed fire extinguisher today. Seems pretty sturdy there with metal hose clamps holding the bracket to the roll bar.

So your new 3.6 has more power than your old 3.6?
