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.

Default Jeep of a Different Color

So i got a wild hair on my ass a few weeks ago....

and I painted my jeep / shot myself in the foot.........

I spray painted it with camo paint and did a piss poor job...


But!!! this sparked my newest project, and what imo is the BEST mod i've done so far.

I'm painting the jeep over this next week..
I did the drivers door, and spare wheel today. tomorrow is passenger door, another wheel, etc...
The wheel paint is a dark gunmetal, and the body paint is a metallic gunmetal with a semi-pearlescent shine to it, (looking dark gray from some angles, to bright silver in others) I think it looks awesome, and I wanted your guy's opinion, updated pics will come soon...

OBTW!

i'm putting my 6 1\2 in lift back on this week too!

The wheel looks good, but it is hard to tell the color from the lighting on the doors.

From your description of the color it sounds cool. If not, it sounds like you know your way around a compressor and paint gun.
