You guys must of missed my thread about the latest mod, Side nipples.

First dent the other side with its mirror. Use the dents to center a drill. Drill the same size hole the hood has for it's nipples. Use a little touch up paint to cover the bare metal and install new windhield bumpers on each side.

Caused by the upper rack?

I have been trying to figure out how the hell i got a dent on each side in the very spot on RubyDoo. Thaught it might have been some stick or something.

Before I got my 2dr Jeep I took a 4 door for a test drive and when I asked the salesman how hard it was to take the doors off he proceeded to show me how easy it was and blam - he put a big ass dimple on the passenger side

So when I finally got around to taking the doors off of my new 2 door I was super paranoid about it. I think it's inevitable though.

drivers side left it for just a second or two to make sure the house door was open (I have a carport on the front of the house. My parking spot is litterally about 3 ft. from my front door )because the doors weigh about 200 lbs. OK maybe more like 50-60 lbs. but still. Turned back around and there it was.
