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.

Installed Boom Mat insulation panels. Really has been helping deaden the heat of summer a bit and my A/C to cool better.

I know the trailmesh is more heavy duty than the ultramesh. They are both good for jku's from what I have heard. I'm just wondering if the trailmesh is worth the extra 20 bucks. Trying to figure out which to buy.

I got the Blaze blue plasti dip and I got lucky on the color match that comes out of a can. Otherwise someone can purchase gallons and tints to get the color they want. The pic below shows what the blue looks like on top of black and my trim pieces are on a white basecoat, makes it pop a bit.

The trailmesh has a 5 year warranty while the ultramesh has only a 1 year

I just installed the trailmesh and I'm really happy with it. It's heavy duty for sure!

Finally got around to installing my spiderwebshade. I mainly bought it to throw on in light rain (yes, i know it has holes in it). We get occasional showers and sun breaks during spring. I figure if it allows me to keep the freedom panels off and keeps some of the rain out, it's a win-win for me.

For the most part it's straightforward to put up, but if you have a JKU and you keep the rear top on, it's a pain in the ass to put up.

Once I got it on, I found that you can easily remove the front fasteners and then roll the mesh up and secure it above the headrests. This way you can keep the hard part attached so taking in on and off will be a lot easier and quicker. This will be helpful for JKU owners who only take the front panels off.
