I love sublime green! This is my 71 dart swinger I restored in sublime green. Unfortunately I had to sell it to fund my jeep habit.

As i said...green looks good on the whole vehicle...but paint that car blue and throw lime green on the wheels, brakes, mirrors, bumpers, door handles, springs, muffler and whatever else you people feel the need to paint to be different...bet it wouldn't look so great then.

An actual practical use for bright green skids and diff covers is for aiding the spotter on a trail. makes it easier to avoid smashing it on a rock.

Good point....

And I think it kicks *** myself. Lots of our Jeeps aren't even considered "real Jeeps" anyway by people who don't like anything different. If the guy wants lime green and a stack it's cool by me. And he won't spill his beer as often with that cup holder. We can redneck our **** as much as we want, we're XJ owners and it's our God given right to do so. As a matter of fact it's damn near our responsibility as the black sheep of the Jeep family. Now where did I put that PVC....

Dixie, I think your rig is SICK, this dude bashing it is a jackass. The WHOLE point of owning/loving/living vehicles, of any sort, is to make it how YOU like it. how it looks best to YOU. The hell with anyone who doesnt like it. It's not their Jeep to care and anyone sticking their nose in trying to tell you how to build your own rig is just is just a nosey control freak.

How's that 4.7 treatin ya???? You figure out that front (coolant) leak??
