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 detailed the JK and installed the new mesh grill.

Still debating on what winch I am going to use.
How do you like that Rough Country bumper and stinger?

However, I don't know if it is an optical illusion or not, but it looks like your lights are way out of alignment... the lines in the reflector should be straight up and down, and it looks like yours are at different angles. That driver's side looks really misaligned.
That was my whole reason for doing the grill is because I wanted to paint those rings. They really help make the light look smaller and blend in better IMO. Thanks, the fender is probably my favorite mod so far, the stock flare size annoys the crap out of me.

No illusion, I just had them in there to see how it looked, I made sure they were straight before bolting it all back together.

I love it. The fit and finish are awesome. They haven't been on long, but I haven't had to adjust anything and it doesn't move an inch while driving or just standing there and pulling on it. I haven't gotten any real use out of it yet since I haven't gotten a winch. I've sold a lot of these bumpers to customers (with winches that actually use them) and they haven't had any problems.

Rubicon Express makes decent long arms at a reasonable price.
