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 believe you have the option when ordering your Jeep/tops... Mine did not come with tinted soft top windows so I was looking to purchase them aftermarket, can be found at most 4x4 product shops online for about $300-$350 if I remember correctly. I lucked out and found some for sale here on the forum and purchased those.

Same here, but I ordered my jeep the first week the JK came out and there was really no options other than aftermarket. I ordered the aftermarket best top tinted windows and never used my factory ones.

I was thinking to myself, "Be careful to hold the door after you take the strap off so you don't ding the door". Not 2 minutes after I get it off I let it go for some other reason and dinged it.

Oh well, like you said, more dents to come...haha

I suggest you to remove the wheels from the Jeep.. you save a lot of time..
spray two times... wait one hour from the first time and the second time..
it looks really great and the color is quite strong..
it need totally about 2 hours each rims..

Hmmmm, it would appear that you have forgot to place something underneath the wheel and tire as not to also paint the tiles it was laying on. Other than that it looks pretty sweet!!

How much did the plastidip cost? Does this end up chipping or fading? Also can u post a pic with the finished rims on?

You may have had to ask. My hard top was factory tinted and listed in the invoice like that.
