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 hear that. I just called my local Tractor Supply and they have the same 13 gauge expanded metal mesh that 07blacksahara has. Just want to make sure the 24x24" size will be enough. I'm at work until 11pm so I can't run out and measure right now.

I think 24" might be a little short. I want to say it's 27" or so. Might need to use two pieces.

Yeah, the more I look at 07blacksahara's pics, the more it looks like he used two pieces. You can tell in his driver's side mount pic. Not a big deal, I'll just get the 24x24" and use the extra. I'll just have to make sure I attach them together behind the grill where it's not visible from the outside.

You can see where he used the second piece.
