There is a list around here of "mods under $20" or something to that effect, but search is failing me.

To answer your question, yes there are lots of things you can do to your Jeep for free or nearly free.

Perhaps you could trim your fender flares?

one cheap mod that takes a bit of time and will help your offroad performance is the evap can relocate. it'll only cost you the hardware if you already own a drill.

do some looking in the writups and you'll come up w/ a lot more cheap mods.

Search for drilled mirrors. That's a free mod that you will love every time you wash your Jeep. I believe Rubiman started the thread.

Check the write up section for the grill mod. Very inexpensive and looks great. I did mine and it cost me about $12. Here is a quick photo (I know but I am not a photographer).
