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?

Shorty OEM bumper, smoked my lenses, painted instrument cluster and bezels. Had to do the bezels twice because my wife ran over them in the garage while they were drying.... Ugh. Can't believe they weren't destroyed!

Plasti-dipped my rims as the knight-chrome finish on the pro-comps wasn't holding up too good. Honestly I liked the knight-chrome look better, so I may go a different direction, but the black on black is ok too. The details on the wheels made it difficult to get a good even covering.

Oh and I also wrapped the spokes on my steering wheel with paracord while I was waiting for the wheels to dry. I am happier with how they turned out Hope to add some neon green biohazard stickers in the near future to match the black / green scheme.

Hey all, I'm new to the forum! Just got my Gecko JK Rubicon about a month ago and I'm finally getting around to some mods. This weekend I plastidipped the rim on the spare tire to make sure I liked the whole black rim concept. Think it looks awesome with the Gecko. So, the rims went to a powdercoating shop on Friday and should having them back in about a week.

Also have some other toys on the way... a Stebel TM80/2 Magnum horn because, well let's be honest, the horn is a joke. Frankly I'm embarrassed to hit the lock button the the key fob when I'm out in public because it sounds like it came out of a cartoon. What were they thinking??? Also, got some neon green and black paracord to weave some custom grab handles.
