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?

I can't believe no one else has commented about this work. Maybe they're PO'ed. you have used some talent and inventiveness to make a GREAT stubby. And, so cheaply. You learned something new and the look is great. I wish i could use that kind of equipment. Congrats

Did you get your grill done?? I can't wait to see it!
Is the night shade called VHT or is it the rust oleum? I got the rust oleum from auto zone.
