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?

Installed a hood lock and finally got around to putting the HID headlights to match my fogs.

If you want to build your own, you can find the materials around your town for a reasonable price... tubing isn't that expensive. The trick is finding the bender and welder that won't charge an arm and a leg!
One of my best friends is a welder/fabricator, and we are friends with a guy who owns a 4 wheel drive shop with a bender. I have already sent him the pic of yours. We are gonna build some for his tj first, then mine. What did you use for tubing? Aluminum or stainless?

Are the HID's a simple plug in replacement or do you have to modify the back end?

The fog lights were plug and play, the headlights themselves need to be ran off a relay with the mod shown in the diagram here. https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...dlight+buzzing All in all it was pretty easy.

Thanks. What is the difference you see with your fogs? As we have little to no fog mine are rock lights.

Talking

Got magnaflow exhaust out on today and sounds just like i hoped it would. good tone but not to loud. Chopped down my bumper last week and looks much better. made the home made grill insert and really love the way it turned out. Got my jk stickers and midwest stickers yesterday and put them on. Pure jeep rock rails should be here by thursday. I think i need to go to a class or something for this mod addiction! What other vehicle looks as cool as a jeep or that you can build to exactly what you want! Pics tomorrow

Be sure to post pics of yours! I love do-it-yourself projects (or in my case, do-it-with-someone-else )

Probably just the angle of the photo. It's the same kit top and bottom.

Preacher don't sell yourself short on the DIY area. I seem to remember some nets for the back you worked pretty hard on!!! They turned out nice too.
