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?

Weather finally broke so installed the MBRP Roof Rack. Surprised how sturdy this thing is.

Looks great! How are the brackets fastened to the grill?

You need to drill 4 holes in the back of the grill and use screws/nuts to hold the brackets. The drilling was easy but I had to muscle the brackets in place because they were not shaped correctly to smoothly fit... Cheap overseas alternative to more expensive stuff I guess

I have the same Rugged Ridge grill, and yeah I agree the initial fit is pretty funky.

That's great! I'm going to install the flush mount in my LoD rear soon as I find a pair at reasonable price. Any issues with the install? What'd you use to cut the bumper?
