Looks good! Ive never seen this in red so that's very unique! Im planning on doing this mod once I leave college for summer break, and I'll also be fabbing some headlight guards in early summer because I dont like the euro ones. But nice job man!

Think I'm doing this one too... right after I drill holes in my mirror mounts. Mine is Red Rock with silver grill.. thinking black mesh? or should I try to match the body color?

I just did the same thing on Saturday. It was so nice out and was getting the itch to do something to the jeep. I used gorilla glue two part epoxy to hold the zip tie blocks. I painted the gutter guard flat black, I think it goes better w my silver JK.

Just did this one today... I used pre-stripped plastic gutter guard (no need for painting). As it was cold out today, I did not wait long enough for all the gorilla glue to dry - thus some of the zip strip squares pulled up. Overall, went good.
