Default Painted my B post black

The only thing that realy bugs me about the look of the new JK 4 doors is the B post (the post between the two doors). It should stop at he same level as the tub and then you would have a roll bar post visible, as all the past Jeeps were. So I painted mine last night. I actually used rattle can bed liner paint to give it some texture. Here are a few before and after pics. It was dark by the time I finished last night, so these are in the shop. I'm going wheeling today, so I'll get some better ones.




masking it off is the worst part




finished!

Question

Nice look.

Who built your front bumper? Looks like Poison Spider.

Do you have full doors or half? If the doors are silver all the way up, it might look odd, but with the doors off it looks good.

Where did you get the Jeep sticker on the side?
