Default $600 bucks in the jeep fund, what to buy?

Pretty much stock JK, waiting on ACE Rocksliders to come in the mail. On my list is a Trektop NX or some new winch capable bumper. Any other suggestions?

If you don't have rubi rails, they look good with ace sliders.

I think you should buy many smaller items versus buying a larger item. Since you have stock wheels and tires a lift would look silly of course I probably am in the minority of thinking that. I would suggest aux. lights and maybe a light bar, rip out your carpet and line it with your choice of product, window replacement brackets, paint to paint those rims and save the money left over for something else.
