My Jeep is growing up
I got my new JK in late November 2008. First thing was to rattle can the stock wheels and a few other things.
Then I bought a set of Jeep Canyon wheels and painted them black. Added Spidertrax adapter/spacers. I also bought a set of Teamsly tube bumpers from a Jk-forum member.
Then today, I just brought her home with new shoes: 33x12.50 Maxxis Buckshot Mudders. My Anniversary is on the 10th of next month and I am getting my 2.5" lift then. I met my wife at Starbucks after getting the new tires and she said " you need a lift now with those tires", I replied " I love it when you talk dirty to me. Well here she is in all her new glory. Soon she will be all grown up.
I have painted the AC vent trim rings to match her gorgeous exterior color. I also blacked out all the lights. I will be trimming the fenders on her very soon.
What do yall think of my pride and joy?

looks good. i personally would stubby both of those bumpers..i sm not a big fan of tube bumpers, but if you shorten them i think they would look better. triming the fenders will also make a big difference. this is how my fenders ended up.

That fender cut looks great! I am planning on cutting the tube bumpers down some.
The stock wheels I didnt paint the wheel weights because I took them off to make sure I didnt have to repaint under them when I added tires. I forgot to paint the wheel weights after removing them. It didnt really matter much since I didnt leave those wheels on very long.
