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 work at a body shop and have felt with the flares on my personal jeep when I got hit. Tell them that the others are added and that the new one isn't going to match. They may argue bit just be persistent my friend! Good luck!

You can read about it here- XPEL.com

If you plan on keeping a vehicle a long time or you like the finish to stay chip and ding free, its worth the $$$ IMHO. I am having the grill, headlights, turn signals, fenders, small painted area of bumper, entire hood, windshield pillars, the top of the w/s frame (painted area) done this Saturday morning. The material is extremely tuff, in fact you cannot push a car key through it. I highly recommend if you have it installed shop around for a seasoned installer. My installer has done several of my cars and trucks.

The film is clear and invisible on most colors like BLLET SILVER
Last winter I taped off the front part of the hood and used Plasti Dip as kind of a bra. It actually took a couple stone chips that surely would've chipped the paint. I peeled it off (with help from a little Goof Off) in the spring. How expensive is the XPEL, and is it very visible? It sounds like a great idea to protect the paint from nasty winters.
