I went with the same orange film that PA-punkn used.

...the blue portion of the spectrum of led light output from the OEM fogs combined with the yellow film produced a weak greenish color that I didn’t care for.
Thanks.

I should have mentioned that my OEM fog lights are incandescent.

Was a big Jeep day today!

- Replaced the polished aluminum Warn fairlead with the Warn Epic gunmetal fairlead
- Modded the plastic moulding for the winch
- Took off end caps

Fantastic looking Jeep! Those wheels are some of the best looking I've seen. What are they?

I made a change and added a skid plate today.

First, since my forward facing camera underneath the Jeep met its fate against a rock, I've been wanting to mount another in a safer place. So I added it to the front bumper. It gets a good look at the ground right in front of the Jeep and adjusted the wheel path lines on the Garmin Overlander.

I then removed the front axle disconnect cover/skid plate and put a much thicker and stronger Rock Hard cover on it to protect it better on the slight chance it takes a hit. This thing is much heavier and beefier. It took 5 minutes to mount as it uses the same 4 bolts the original used.

Installed some new rock sliders instead of the sahara steps.

Also installed white grill surround to give the front end the little detail it was missing after blacking out the grill.
Looks good....
What size lift did you go with?

I thought I blew it up, :facepalm:........ We were out running a trail with Rudolph and was vertical to much. The blow by leaked out of the throttle body, that’s my best guess anyway. There never was a CEL or any other warnings , bells, or whistles. It’s running fine, so I’m not to worried about it. The wife accused me of sabotage, since the there’s been talk of the 392 , lol. I fully expect to hear it from the catch can guys, lol. :)

I've a set of heavy mil yellow lens decals waiting to be installed on my fog lights. Do you find that the orange lenses on your rig make a positive difference when driving through low visibility conditions? TIA.
Unfortunately I haven't had an opportunity to test them out in bad weather...yet. Another forum member recommended them and he said he did find a big improvement, so hoping for similar results. That said I do like the amber on orange look regardless ;)

In three days it will be two years since my Rubicon purchase - finally decided to put on 35’s. Overall, happy with results. I still get the 8th gear, MPG impact had not been noticeable and ride is a bit better.
Nice, and as expected.., stock no lift? .., and what tires?
Thanks!
