Just buy some black vinyl tape and put it over the pinch seam. It covers everything and you can't really see the bolts unless you look for them. this is the only picture I have on me right now, but you can't really see it at all
@MORTON I did a little write up for covering pinch seams cheaply but effectively here:Bushwacker makes some plastic thingies that can go over the pinch seam and hide it, and they will fit under/behind most rock rails.
But I'm weird in that I think pinch seams == part of the Jeep look and don't mind them. Plus if you can see them you can see when they start to rust
Yep, sorry, missed this one before I sent my link to basically the same method. Black Plastidip also works great.Just buy some black vinyl tape and put it over the pinch seam.

I like that gladiator insert. where did you get it sir?I let my wife know she was getting me Oculus Bi-LED headlights for Christmas. Of course, when they arrived, I was sure to comment "Aw honey, they're EXACTLY what I wanted!" (She said the same thing when the Michael Kors purse she ordered arrived :^). Since we'll be up at the cabin for Christmas, she let me install them today.
Here's the before (had to sneak my '65 into the pic :^)...
Here's the after... Since I knew I would be removing the grill, I decided to buy a Gladiator grill insert- I don't know if I like it better or not, but it's different and it should be easier to wash compared to the finer mesh on the Wrangler insert!
I have to say, the Oculus headlights were the easiest install I've ever done on any vehicle. It is very obvious someone put a LOT of thought into the design of this kit. If I had my own factory, I cannot think of a single thing I'd do differently with this kit. Everything was perfect- even the wiring was the EXACT right length. Very happy with the Bi-LED headlights!
About a month ago, I also deleted the rear tire. My tailgate is happier, I get better visibility out of the back, the Jeep is a bit zippier, AND I got over 20mpg out of a tank for the first time ever! Really happy with the ARTEC tire delete kit as well!
I got mine as well, and one of the "Christmas Week" projects I want to get done.
Picked up my MetalCloak diff covers from the Cerakote shop...hopefully I get some time this weekend to get them installed.
Nice! I have the same wheels. What lift, if any, are you running?Got these mounted and balanced, ready for a spring install after I add the lift. Quadratec hardrock 17x8.5 with 315/70/17 KO2s.
Got the mopar lift. Gonna wait until spring to install as I really don’t feel like freezing during the install lol. Also adding rock krawler perches, rk adjustable track bar, rk rear track bar relocation bracket, and mopar fox steering stabilizer. May get geometry correction brackets if need be but based on other members on this site I think I will be great with what all I’ve got.
They kind of look like tactical knee pads lol

Holy shit lolOk, I will bite. I have a whole pile of part in the garage from Black Friday. Today however I added a warn winch to the factory steel bumper. A big shout out to @River City Offroad for all the parts and awesome customer service.
