Default EVO Rock Sliders on Stock JKUR

How dorky would it be to put EVO sliders on a stock JKUR? I plan on doing a lift, but will probably want to put 1000 or so miles on my to-be-shipped '13 just to make sure I haven't bought a turd. I figure even if it is, putting sliders on it right away isn't a major, major investment that I'd kick myself for.

Anyone have pics of a stocker with EVO sliders? Seriously, tell me if it would just look tacky.

Sliders are a good first mod. Do it!

Not as dorky as a bent up and dented jeep body.

I have sliders and a stubby jcr front bumper on my stocker....plus full skids. Id attempt more stuff with my setup than lifted with no armor. Lifted with stock step rails looks stupid and tells me they don't wheel....at least not hard.

Mod for function not looks.

Might be a dumb question but I'm gonna ask anyways. I'm having mine welded on this weekend, which end is the front? The one with the mount closest to the end?

Think of the guy that parks next to you and opens this door and hits the slider and not the body.

x2, a great first mod. Almost any slider is better than no slider and the EVO's are bomb proof!
Running these on a stock unlimited says, "I care.....I care a lot, so I'm running the best"
