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?

That looks sharp... I loke the idea. Has me thinking now...

My waist rails are getting a little scratched as well... Might have to give this a go. Im assuming you just cleaned well and sprayed? Cant imagine taking sandpaper to the paint.

I sanded, very lightly...just enough to scuff up the clear coat. Took all of five minutes to scuff.

Did you scuff it up before you sprayed it?
I did, used a prograde (fine) sanding sponge, hit it very lightly

Installed my MBRP catback exhaust. I have to say that it really doesn't make that much of a difference without a tuner.

I had to use a green scotch brite pad on mine. When I bought it used someone nicked it pretty good taking the hard top off. Some of the places I had to take to the bare metal prior to bed lining. Looks good and has not come off in three years.

Installed aluminum upper links on the rear and streached the wheelbase back another 1" to center the wheels in the wheel wells, moved the lower link mounts on the frame side for more ground clearance, and ran a 12 volt outlet to the rear of the Jeep for the ARB fridge. Also mounted a lockbox under the drivers seat and got the front seats back in.
