Cool Keeping the Jeep look.

Hey guys.. I have an 09 X and I'm getting ready to fix it up a bit. I want to keep the stock wheels, because I'm trying to keep the Jeep look.. I'm considering a 3" Teraflex coil lift with 35's, not sure what brand.. but I was wondering what would be some good accessories to purchase for it (i.e., steel bumpers, kc lights, etc.) If you can include a rough estimate of the price that'd be great as well.. Remember I'm trying to keep the classic jeep look, not too fancy. Just want it to look good.

Spend some time looking through all the show and tell threads. Replacing the stock plastic bumpers with aftermarket ones is always a good change. As for price estimates...Quadratec, Northridge 4x4, etc.
