What did you do TO your Jeep JL today?

[melendez69]

I picked up foot pegs off the Etsy after seeing a couple owners here with them. They're not very secure... they wiggle back & forth too much since you're sticking a flat peg into a round hole. I used adhesive felt pads to hold them in place. Using a pin to hold them also isn't very secure. They're sturdy and solid, but a little overpriced at $114.

I have a pair my chick got for me off the Amazon for $20 a couple years ago & I'll stick with them. Maybe switch back & forth, but the originals stay in place with a Nylok nut. Painted them. Yeah, yeah, I know... orange with the red Jeep. I like orange...don't judge me.

What made you replace them?

Didn’t think the originals sounded great and with the top off the volume wasn’t Sufficient. The new speakers also make phone calls sound much more realistic and xrusp

Matched up the license plate with the hood sticker...

And, installed the @ORACLElights Oculus Bi-LED Headlights... Quick one night review... I've never seen a line so crisp as the line between light and dark with low beams on. AND, they required no adjustment. They were both spot on out of the box.

Replaced the front dash corner speakers with Kicker 3 1/2's from Crutchfield ($70). Total install time was 10 min, tools needed trim removal tool and short Phillips head. Plug and play and they sound SOOOOO much better than OEM. Also replaced the tweeters in the roll bar with Quadratec Super tweeters ($129 and also plug and play) and the upgrades increase volume dramatically as well as sound quality. Total install for all 4 was 20 min taking my time. Well worth it!

WOW - they look totally different. I was assuming that may be it. Very cool. Powder coating is permanent correct?

So the same as my rims. The way you did the black lug nuts and center peice looks great!

Installed Lamin-x amber fog light covers. Thanks to @Bill8 for the suggestion!

Permanent unless you wanna re-powdercoat them again. Yes new black lugs and kept center cap black cause it’s plastic and can’t be powdercoated. Here’s a better pic in the sun

After 4 months of payments, I decided that the JLR is a keeper, so I paid it off. Debt free living is nice especially driving a 2020 Rubicon.

Congrats. I made one payment for mine at the time of delivery.
