Ahhh yeuuhh Lil' Hulk got a much needed bath! I hand-washed and hand-waxed him :)

Used Meguiar's shampoo and ultimate wax for the Mojito! And used the Meguiar's mirror bright Vinyl & Rubber (for plastic bumper, handles, runningboards, hardtop and steel front bumper) and Meguiar's hot and shine tire shine for the tirezzz!!! *giggles*

I am disappointed in the door sill protectors for the JL. They do not cover the top part where peoples feet drag across. The JK one they designed did. I hope the aftermarket addresses these. Thanks for the pics as yours are more clear and close up confirming that the top lip is completely exposed.
I totally agree!! I am very big on buying mopar accessories. They are [usually] very high quality and vigorously tested...most of the cheaper aftermarket stuff is garbage(looks great the first day but things like powder coat etc will begin to chip and rust). I have the mopar sill guards and man what a let down!! They "protect" the only area of the sill that hardly ever gets stepped on!! Its the areas directly above and below the mopar sill guards that get the most traffic and abused. Mopar JL sill guards are literally useless aside from looking good, but even then I now think they look a little silly because just looking at them is like "heck are those protecting?!!" Maybe mopar will redo them and send us all who bought them "warranty" replacements(wink wink Mopar...huge let down--dont care how cheap these were...)

Any plans with your set up?! Keeping OEM wheels? or?
You know...I been thinkin' bout it. I wanna get a rear steel bumper first. And my current suspension/lift setup is fine for me. I don't plan to climb any rocks, but it works for my off-roading needs. However, with my tires, I definitely might go wider. I've been talking to @TTEChris about various setups...so I'm sure he'll get Lil' Hulk right when I have a bit more mod-money coming my way. I've modded Lil' Hulk more than I thought I would already lol.

Jeeps just kinda take ova lol...hard to explain.

Loving my current tires tho' bc my MPG is off the chain! So, I'll have to see...might just use my tires until it's time to replace them, then go with something a bit larger. As far as my stock rims...I mean, again IDK. Like there are so many other choices out there that are FIREEEE. But I like my stock rims...I don't love them, but I really like them; feeling that "black-out" look.

Again, I'll probably consult with Chris about this when I change my tires. He'll probably convince me to change my suspension...He gots that convincing power; makes getting a lift seem "absolutely necessary". :cwl::cwl::cwl:

Where are your pics!? I wanna see :blush:

Made up a little switch panel for aftermarket stuff. Rest of the relay board still being put together so no power on them yet, work in progress! Still trying to find a place to mount the relays...

I like that your Jeep is shinny. I will use the products you use the next time I wash my Jeep. Did you plasti-dip your wheels?

Nope! No plasti-dip. These are stock OEM wheels that come with the Base Sport. They look exceptionally shiny and black because of the Meguiar's Mirror Bright treatment I used.

I used this particular product on my wheels, hard top, plastic door handles, plastic rear bumper, fenders, molded running boards and my steel bumper; as well as the plastic latches that secure the hood. This stuff really is amazing, as the plastic can look old after being exposed to the sun/elements.

I love Meguiar's products and I own various types of Meguiar's wax and detailing products. It's "my thing" lol. :involve:

Nice Job... I washed my Ocean Blue this weekend, never seem to get it completely clean, too many cracks, around the cowl for perfect cleaning.
