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.

looks awesome! Only thing I would say is needs a little bit more lift, tires look a little too big for the lift. I haven't broke down and bought the hemi yet, but getting close. I'm planning on keeping mine as well, already going on 4 years and getting too much into now with the 37"s anyhow so hemi is next on the list!

Like the other ride you have there as well.

Should paint the silver part of the engine cover rescue green to make it stand out a little.

Before the hemi i had the ripp supercharger on it for a few thousand miles but i wanted more power.

i just bedlined the front grille but im not too happy with how it turned out so im prob gonna do it over and this time take off the rubber strip on the top instead of just taping it off

its pretty dirty but let me know what you think
Nice, I bet that was a lot if$$$$
