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.

Rain today. I was going to take the Jeep to the carwash to get the road salt off and then take nice photos of it with the new grille, but that'll have to wait until tomorrow; for now a few garage shots will have to do.

That looks damn sharp. Like your other projects it looks factory.

Thank you very much. Achieving a factory look is always my goal for body modification projects .

Had to run to the store and when I came out I found a JK next to me so I couldn't resist a few comparison photos...

Love my JK but that is so much better looking. FCA should have you on speed dial whenever the JL needs a refresh. Great work and fingers crossed some company offers you boatloads of money for a production run

Knocked it out of the park again, it looks great Jeff. It's wild how modern that grille looks yet appropriate on the JK.

Thank you. I don't care about boatloads of money, but if some company or person wants to bring this grille to market they can contact me and I'll be happy to discuss it with them.

An errand this morning took me past the local Jeep dealer and driving by I noticed they had a JL placed where I could get some side-by-side photos. This JL doesn't have inserts in the grille slots, I guess it's not a high-spec model.





BTW if anyone is thinking of trying to adapt a factory JK grille to their JK, I measured and the distance between the headlights on the JL is about an inch wider than the headlight spacing on the JK.

I like the size and spacing of the JL slats but I also like the rounded top and bottom of the JK slats. Could the two be combined?

The overall look of your projects all combined on the JK really hit it out of the park.
