JK-Forum.com - The top destination for Jeep JK and JL Wrangler news, rumors, and discussion

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?

The color goes on first, then the black, but before it goes in the oven, wipe away the black covering the spyder, the key is the prep before the PC. The spyder has to be sanded smooth as possible

You can also mask and paint them yourself

This took forever

And it may not be as clean as the powdercoat, it's a good 10 foot paint job and only cost me $10

Custom PC isn't cheap, but it holds up better than paint. I paint them too if its a color PC can't match.
