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.

Who has scratches?

Same thing here. I have more scratches than paint. I think a yearly trip to a detailer would help. I just have to remind myself of why I purchased the Jeep, and why there are scratches on it.

I'm so scratched up I'm moving to a bedliner paint job. Its all part of owning a jeep. Don't wax it, don't wash it. Just keep the engine and diff fluids changed and she will love you forever.

Tons of scratches both sides. Dented and punctured stock front bumper as well. I was bummed over my first scratch but rather like them now. Gives the Jeep character.

I had a bunch but I own a professional buffer. A wool pad and some clear coat compound and you can't tell I off road. I'm proud of my Jeep and I like it to look purely! I trail, then I buff. Good workout for me too.
