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?

Antenna-x. You just unscrew the mast and screw on the new one.

Nope, very hard. In fact, if you cant spell it you should not even attempt to install it.

Default I need everyone's opinions.

So I painted the vents on my induction hood red. Not sure exactly what I think about it. My jeep was totally blacked out with only red D rings on the front bumper and I have red accents on the interior. I don't necessarily hate the red vents but I'm not in love with it either. Everyone's honest opinions would be greatly appreciated. The last two pics are the original black.

Mine is blacked out too with red shackles. Oh and also a red hi-lift on the back. But I'm with you, I don't love it but I don't hate it either. I would definitely not add any more red though. I would say keep it for a while and then decide. Since you're in the middle it could go either way so that would be a better time to make the decision. That's what I would do anyway.

Yeah not sure which way to do it. But now that I'm thinking about it I just kind of rushed into the project and I didn't use high heat red paint. So I probably shouldn't leave that red on there with just regular rustoleum paint. What do you think? Thank you for the response.

My shackles and high lift are rustoleum and they are holding up just fine. Granted they don't have the heat of the engine near.

I dont think you will have to worry about engine heat, most paints can handle a pretty substantial amount just because they are made for outdoor use in the sun. Most high heat paint is for 400-500+ degrees and wont cure properly if not exposed to extreme temperatures. Btw i think the painted vents look badass, ive never seen it before, great idea
