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 drop down gate is a lot more realistic if you're not running a spare.
Yes agreed 100% I dont run a spare so not an issue for me

Thanks. I didn't use a kit. The reason I did a tire carrier is because I wanted the extra gas for when go offroad..

I'm happy with it so far. Maybe it's just the new blades or the combination of both, but I like it.
I don't get the streaks in the lower left corner anymore.
And for 7 $ it's worth a try.
I have a '11 and it was simple replacement.

Dipped my rockers to cover some paint chipping. Now I need to find time to throw on my ace sliders.

Turned out nice against dark charcoal pearl

Finally upgraded wheels and tires. I'm a fan of 20s on all vehicles and I went with 20x9 Raceline wheel with Nitto 305/50 r 20 terra grapplers. I'm now excited to drive anywhere. I do light trailing, tear it up in the snow and did some rock climbing on my stock wheels.

I had my Poison Spyder JK Hood Louver powder-coated gloss black. Waiting on warmer temperatures to install it!

Well, it's not much, but I couldn't justify spending 40-60$ on a CB antenna bracket so I made my own. What do ya think?
