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?

Just blacked out my tail lights with a half-empty spare can of Plasti-Dip I had laying around. Going to check them this evening to make sure I didn't get them too dark.

That's what I'm thinking. I've just ordered some LED bulbs, so they should give a lightage boost.

Put on some Pilot universal fit mirrors from Autozone. Door less is much more comfortable now without the vigorous shaking of my old Olympic 4x4 mirrors

Yes, it works great as a tinter. Just don't put too many coats on, hard to see in the day time. At night, mine are plenty bright, but in sunlight, not so much.

I've ordered a pair of LED 3156/3157 tail light bulbs, so we'll see if they help for day light.

I'm going to redo it, if the new bulbs aren't bright enough.

PS, I did my grill too, and the amber turn signals show right through in the daytime.
