Drilled mirrors and spidertrax spacers( I knew I wasn't gonna wait too long before lifting and puttin 35's on) More credit cards equal more mods, Damn gotta get sum mo, all mine are maxed and I still need bumpers, winch, more lift, new rims, supercharger, gears, line-x,rock rails, skid plates OH MY! Hint, wait till your wife goes to sleep before you drill the mirrors, and never tell her it didn't come that way. If you get caught, tell her it was a TSB recall and they were supposed to do it at the factory. You were just saving her the hassle of bringing it to the dealer

Aside from that...
Lift Baby LIFT!

My first mods were to peel off the visor stickers, the dealership sticker, and the dealership license plate holders. I hate advertising for dealerships
I also peeled off the Xs on the side and i'm waiting for my JK decals

I live in Florida and it rains 1 million times (a day) and I have never had the leaky mirror syndrome. Anyway, stickers mod first then I added mud, then I got a lift and tires at the same time.

I keep going round and round on what to do first (as far as major mods). I keep leaning toward a 2.5" BB and new wheels and tires. However, after creating a spreadsheet and listing out all of the "little" mods that make the most sense to buy upfront, it really hits home how quickly all of those small amounts can add up.
Here's what I'm looking at so far:
>>ARB Recovery Gear
>>Front & Rear Grab Handles
>>JKS Discos
>>Husky Liners
>>Locking Gas Cap
>>K&N Air Filter
>>Sill Guards
>>Silverstars
>>Drilled Mirrors
>>CB Radio
>>Extinguisher
>>First Aid Kit
As many have mentioned, I anticipate that my stock Jeep will be able to easily handle any of the off-roading that I'll be doing for quite a while. I would love to have the lift and larger MT's right away, but I need to place function ahead of looks for the near term. These mods/accessories should supply me with just about everything I'll need until I'm ready to take on more challenging terrain.
