Nice ride man!

You know, they say only exceptional intellectuals typically pick the Granite Crystal color.

That's what I've heard anyways.

I believe that to be true as well!

Did you black out the side "Jeep" emblems, or replace them?

Thanks!

Thinking about plastidipping mine. They’ve got the sprey at Lowe’s and it’s removable

Not exactly. That's the euro hood (he's in Italy). Not sure if that is just on the Diesel or on all models. Also notice the euro bumper.

I think I am going to do this as well, looks a-lot better and it's pretty much a free mod. Like the work with the Dremel - came out clean.

Lookin good man! I just noticed I had them lol

They aren’t bolted in? You have to cut them out?

I’m doing this soon. From what I learned with my BMW, the more coats the better

Thanks

You can just remove them. But it leaves wires exposed. So many people dremel around the part that covers the wires. I don’t understand that myself. The wires and even the fog lights would be easy to replace if there was an issue which i doubt there would be. To each his own i guess. The Quadratec video on this is very good if you are looking for a guide.

Yeah I’m going to look into this for sure. Not sure why they would even put them on there haha and since they did, you would think they would have made it to where if you removed them it would look clean without having to dremel..
