Black lugs!! Where did you get or how did you do?!!
Gorilla makes a set, find them on Aamzon. This is a quick search, but make sure you get the right thread setup. I know Jeep uses "Acorn" heads

I wanted Black, ended up with Silver though to save a couple bucks (My wife preferred the sliver/chrome). My goal was to get locking lug nuts.

@MacombRoger

The link you have posted brings up the WRONG size lug nuts for the JL !

The correct size for the JL/JLU is: 14mm x 1.50 Thread Size
Yep, mentioned they should confirm the size, couldn't readily find it this morning. I updated my link too, just in case.

Thanks!

How do you like it? I watched their YouTube video and it sounds like it would be my favorite exhaust. My only complaint is that in quiet mode exhaust comes out only one side.

I’m curious to hear your feedback. Thanks.
I am very happy with it so far. The sound when closed is perfect for daily driving, giving you a deeper note than stock. Not notice able at all that is only one side. Love that you can open it and get more sound and free flow when i want.
They were able to hook it up to my home link inside so we don't have to use the remotes inside the Jeep.
Very happy good upgrade.

PS, I fixed the link. And you can see why I went with the Chrome vs the Black, $72 vs $127 since my goal was "locking".

@Armando11611

Be reallyl selective in regard to the mushroom base of the lug you use. I suggest these. Added plus in they are locking/splined.
Can be had in black or chrome.

For black:
Gorilla Automotive 96644BDX Black Factory Style Wheel Lock System (14mm x 1.50 Thread Size, 24-Pack)

Plasti-dipped my E-ZPass. Got tired of seeing that white thing in the center of the windshield.
Here in TX we have a toll tag sticker that they say you have to put near the top center of your windshield (behind the rearview mirror). I didn't like that look so I have mine in the lower corner near my registration sticker and it still reads on the toll roads with no problems.

they also have sports teams available for the toll tag...much prefer to show off the mavs than an orange T.

Bought the dual top group, so we removed the hardtop and installed the soft-top. Hope to get use of the soft-top for another month and half before going back to the hardtop. Install was pretty straight forward, did it inbetween games/halves during Sunday football

After 23 days in Archery elk camp I headed back to town for a real shower and to wash clothes. My JL will get a bath next week. First 2 weeks were hot and last week never stopped raining. We have 2 bulls down and my daughter(the owner of the red 2 door) missed a giant last Saturday. The JL, not surprisingly has got me everywhere I needed to go in the Oregon Coast!! Getting ready to head out for the final 7 days...I’m shooter now so hopping to pack my JL with a years supply of meat!!! The thing I plan on doing when I get back is figure a way to keep from slinging gravel everywhere....these fender flares are a gravel catcher....

They don't offer the 24 in black on Amazon. I had to order mine from summitautomotive.com

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.
Thanks!

Ye it took me 3hrs to hand wash and wax it. I still need to wax the entire hard top, as I didn't have time to get it all (had somewhere to be afterward). It's definitely a job, but I used a long carwash brush thingy to scrub it all over first (including all of the hardtop), then washed it again with a microfiber towel so I could get those hard-to-reach places.

I'm extremely impressed with that Mirror Bright treatment tho. Like, it intensifies the black of all plastic pieces; and the way it made that steel bumper look so smooth...yes, extremely impressed.
