Here's a better picture of the black hood, the paint turned out less glossy then I had expected which was good because the matte black really contrasts with my sparkly blue jeep

Intersting build man, there's all kinds of suggestions on how to mod your jeep... first place I would look would be the Homebrew mods thread ( https://www.cherokeeforum.com/f58/ne...thread-130034/ )
some pretty good stuff in there

well, theres been no major updates on the build lately except that I was cut off while driving they got what was coming to them. Rear ended them and ruined thier car... jeep was fine (fine being a broken blinker and a scrath on the fender) but no one was hurt and I was pissed.

Soon i will be re doing my rear bumper. and welding on some d-ring tabs to my front bumper. The rear bumper has a little play in it with my current jimmy rigged design.
Dont worry my new design isnt going to budge. at. all..

started work on the D-ring tabs for the front bumper. As for the rear bumper i looked in my scrap pile and didnt have the metal i needed. Guess the rear will have to wait a little while longer....
Pictures of the D-rings coming soon.

Looking good buddy I've always liked the 2 door 5spds. That is a ton of money for those rims you got though!
I say trim your front fenders and cut/fold the rears next!
If you want to paint more of your jeep next time use plasti dip! You can peel it off down the road should it become damaged or of your just over the look.
