Anyone Regret Modding To Soon?!?

Nope, I got to the base looking package I wanted for my Rubicon. 37's with a Mopar lift. Now, everything after is gravy to me. The stance and flexibility was important to me after owning my CJ and my TJ. Capability wise, I can always go with better lifts to handle harder trails, but now I'm going to take my time on bumpers.

Owning my first Jeep now 2 mos, and falling back into old but fun habits of the modding days, I seem to wonder a lot lately if I should space out my modding so that I really enjoy the car and anticipate the upgrades as they come naturally (not jump the gun every week as I started to do initially) and buy all the fun things so soon …. I mean don't get me wrong I am not a fan of 100% stock OEM , walking out to my DD Jeep and seeing stock wheels and tires makes me cringe , however I look forward to the day I can upgrade to a 2.5" lift and some 35s at the very least … but again if I did everything at the dealer (or if I would have purchased the Sport soft top with fuel wheels and cube lights already installed) I think I would have been not bored but routine with the car by now , nothing to look forward to doing to it ,

In my defense and I know most will say there is always something to do to the Jeep which is true however as a DD I wont be getting to crazy with off road equipment/parts etc so wheels/tires some interior mods (aux 4 port switch, ) maybe some rock lighting under carriage and a new bumper maybe it for me ...

You know I look at the original 40s Willys and it looks just fine the way it is. No modifications are required. I look at my 2dr. JL with the black steel stock AT wheels and I love it the way it is . It is a fine looking Jeep and I am not planning to do any rough off roading anyways . I like the ability to drive down some logging roads and I don't have to skip my day due to some ridiculous snowfall we can get here in Toronto. I will be taking a road trip to the Rockies and I am sure I will find lots of trails where my stock Wrangler will get me many places .

Thank you. It was a factory order option that I took a guess on, hoping it would look good and it definitely did. You can still get them online though. It's a Mopar decal.. 1941 upper body decal is what it's called maybe?

So far I have kept my Rubi all stock except for wheel spacers. Due to work I end up wheeling a whole lot. So far I haven't needed to do anything else do it. I may get some additional skids soon though, as I have drug in a few areas. When I require new tires I will probably Stick some 35's on it. That is about all I can see needing.
