So in need some opinions.
I'll be painting my jeep this summer the paint scheme will be satin blue main body and the satin black for part of the header panel, hood, cowl and roof.
So with that in mind if you can picture it. Should I go with the factory gold limited script and pinstripe or something like a military theme.
Factory pinstripe
Something of a military theme

And as for the military decals I'm looking in to getting them in tan which I believe would match, not over the top kind of color and get it that look I'm looking for.

Tire carrier turned out great. Looks like you could drill a hole (2-1/2") it so that it could mount a little closer to the hatch? Other than that looks very functional.

I still need to relocate the license plate and wire a license plate light. Then it will be painted.

Well thanks to a local member on here (PnwPioneer) I got 4 manual doors, so no more power doors for me. I need to do some work to put them on. Swap door cards, make a hole for the window handle and swap mirrors till I can get some late model ones. I know I will turn my old rears in to half doors and maybe the fronts too.

It was built that way so I didn't have to take it out when I go wheeling.
On another note I have been watching and reading over half door builds and I think I found a way to my door handles inside and out. Pretty much gutting the door inside of window crap and cut the window frame off. When I get around to my half door build I'll try and make a write up.

Everyone know that the door hinges break on xjs well my upper driver side has been cracked but didn't realize it was fully broke till it popes off Saturday when I was getting parts to fix my girl's car.
So Sunday this is what I came up with to fix the problem.
The hinge got weld then ground down not pictured tho
Made this out of some 10 gauge steel
After welding but before paint. Also two 5/8th hole were drilled and welded but for maximum hold.
