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?

This kit is high quality no plastic used. The plates are pretty solid and so is the finish. I must admitt the cutting and drilling was a bit nerve racking but not too bad if you go slow and take your time. I would highly recommend getting the harness to lessen the amount of cutting and splicing as well as the load resistors to eliminate the fast blink. The hardest part was not cutting the body but drilling the holes right so they would line up. The plate is not cut perfectly to fit the contours of the rear so it basically bends into place as you torque down the bolts. Drill one hole at a time, clamp, mark, drill repeat. Utilizing your clamps are very important. Very happy with the way it turned out.
