Made my windows operate individually! No more having to put windows up and down for friends. Fixing the stuff the PO couldn't do for some reason. Ordering my rack tomorrow for the top. Hopefully the LEDs will come in soon so I can do my courtesy lights, dome lights and the dash/cluster.

Painted the inside of the frame
While I can get to it, just gotta finish prepping the new weld seams, make up a couple of braces and patches then tack the floors in.

Grille Painting

I'm kinda new around these parts, only had my Jeep for about a month but I just Painted my grille and bezels with a satin silver to match up with the Jeep logo. The grille is cracked and I'm learning on the fly here about things so it's a little rough but I figured if I hated it it wasn't that expensive or hard to replace.

Any opinions on painting the metal part of the bumper the same silver (kinda imagining what the Sahara Wranglers have)?

I think painting the bumper the same color would be too much silver. Looks fine how you have it now.

+1. I like the silver highlight but the bumper would be a bit too much. I feel the same about the Sahara JKs too. Bedliner on the bumpers and the plastic moulding (fender flares, door trim) looks pretty sharp though.

I was trying to figure out why anyone would want to have a stone floor. Then I realized it was your driveway. Been there!

I have a question. What is the purpose in cab lights? If you like em, roll with it but man, they sure do look bad on something other than a huge truck.
