Notices
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.

What was done to your JK this week?

I used Duplicolor HiTemp caliper paint.. figured caliper and rotor see temps a hell of a lot higher than the muffler does. Help up great.. no pic for you as I just traded the 2008 in and haven't done the muffler on the 2011 yet...



That's awesome!! got a link to the install thread?

Nice. One of those non-glamorous mods that pays dividends in the future. What panel did you use? Take any pics?

I did not drop the muffler, I drove the Jeep up on ramps and got under it.
used Rust-Oleum Engine Paint good for up to 2,000 degrees F.

This one is oil and grease resistant and good up to 2,000 degrees. I did wire brush and wash my muffler before the paint. I think it will hold up fine.
