Your GF should be able to do as she pleases with her Jeep.

This is a fun thread I’ve seen on a few other forums. Can be anything from mods to drives, to washes, etc. pictures are always a plus!

So what did you do to your Jeep today?

Waxed it for the first time I just got my brand new JLUR last THURSDAY

Looks nice! What grill is that?

It is made by Fiberworx in So Cal. It is available in both fiberglass ($700) and Carbon Fiber ($1100)

They also have some nice Fenders https://fiberwerx.com/products/cat/fenders/pf/jeep,jl,2019/

Im looking to buy one ASAP! How much? I know they go for $875 new through mopar website. Let me know how much you want, would have to get it shipped to San Diego, obviously that would be an additional cost..

The Jeep hood would be very expensive and hard to package for shipping without the factory BOX, even then unless you were repainting the finish could get damaged, which is why companies like Black Mountain who also sells hoods including the Rubi hoods will not ship painted hoods.

Here is the invoice from my Rubicon hood (through my local dealer) I was able to get a $125 discount

If you are looking for a custom hood checkout Fiberworx in San Diego Their Hood is $700 and they are right in your back yard.

Made a custom version of our Pioneer series front and rear bumper in clear anodized 7050 T-74 aluminum:

<ROAM JL Pioneer Front Bumper in clear anodized 7050 T-74 aluminum pictured.>

<Please excuse the side steps and the spare tire, the stainless steel side steps do not yet have the weld heat tint/coloration polished off just yet and the spare tire isn't the same size as the rest of the tires. Also missing the aux LED lights on the rear bumper. Will update with better pictures after EJS 2019.>

<The ROAM JL Pioneer Rear Bumper MK1 also includes a Spare Tire Relocation Bracket for compatibility with larger tire sizes.>

How much did dealer charge you to match paint?

Those tabs aren't screwed in are they!?

Nope. 3M super strong adhesive. So far I have not drilled a single hole in the new baby. And I’ve done several mods ( (including Roskslide Engineering Step/Slider). It’s really nice how many components are designed to utilize factory bolts hole, etc.

Day Sixteen. Finished up the installation of my Smittybilt X20 10,000lb winch long with a Rusty’s winch mounting plate. Very nice directions included with Rusty’s winch plate mount. I’m less than impressed with the control box attachment for the winch. I really can’t believe that design ever got past a drafting check, much less an Engineering check. I ended up using two pairs of zip ties in each of the holes in the little castings. I think it’ll be fine, but if I have to I’ll fab up something a bit more substantial.
One note: the instruction with the winch plate say to discard that little plastic trim piece that goes between the bumper and the grill. I didn’t like seeing the frame raises and fog light wires, so I trimmed it to clear the winch and reinstalled. I think it looks more finished now.
Oh, and while I was at it I deleted the bumper extension before starting the job. That made the bumper removal and reinstall an easier one-person job.

I forgot to mention the Warn low rise grill guard.

How much did dealer charge you to match paint?

I took a chance on Maaco for $350 and they did a perfect match, they dealers paint shop wanted $800 (there was no dealer profit in that either. Maaco even installed the hood which took them 2 hours also that included new painted hood hinge bolts as they will trash the stock ones removing the stock hood so make sure you plan for that. They painted mine before the hood was installed I would recommend installing then painting.

@ROAM rear bumper installed. Got lights on the way to complete the look. Fit/finish is top notch. Looks great. Can't wait for the lights to come in.

I think your rig is my favorite (besides my own ) on here! Each of your modifications is tasteful, incredibly well done, and all around badass!

@ROAM i emailed previously about your aluminum rear bumper and was put on a wait list for it. Is this available now?
