That it was sir. I thought I saw a JK sticker on that when you drove past. I've seen ya driving around for a while and had tire envy... Yea I painted those as they came silver and stuck out a little weird on a black/orange jeep. Do you do your own work on your jeep? I'd like to learn how to do things on jeeps as I don't know annnnnnnything. I've paid to have my lift put on, but did do the lights and bumpers at least.

Yea, as of current I've done all my own work. I'll never claim to be an expert....most of the time I read up enough on the forum to get by!

I've done all my work as well. 2 lifts(2.5" and 4"). and all the other stuff on my JK and at least 1 other on a buddies. I'm no expert, just read a lot, have some decent tools and have no fear!
