Not my Jeep, but the key. Didn't want a bigger fob but the grandkids got it for me so I Mojito'd it...

On Facebook, there is a group you can join called "Jeep Modified Club".
https://www.facebook.com/groups/175538689814507

A Chinese corp. runs this group... Anyway, at that group they give away this and other stuff that comes out of China. Only thing they want in return is an Amazon review..

I've gotten a few pieces of Chinese crapola from them...

They sent me one of these fob covers for free. It was a red one. Fit was aok. I actually thought it was kinda cool looking...

Weighed a friggin ton though and it knocked out "range" so my remote start, etc. were negatively impacted.

I ended up giving the cover to a young kid that lives down street that has one of those battery operated Jeeps. She loves the thing.... with the word JEEP on it.

Does add to the weight of the fob, but the grandkids kept asking where it was. I ended up putting it on my spare fob, just have to remember to switch out when I take them for a ride!

Well, for those that asked.... YES, the flags face the proper direction when installed on the keyholes... Fit and finish is excellent. Once on, they are on there really securely..
They look great!

Wheeled it on the stock 32 with a RC 2.5 spacer lift:

Then came home and mounted the new 37:

Took the ends caps off my bumper and made it a stubby.

next up is the 3.5 MC game changer lift and a new tire carrier.
shocked at how well this 2.0 turns these 37. Will regear eventually after knocking some other mods out. Stuck between 4.88 and 5.13. I like to rent trailers and have a feeling I’ll go bigger tires down the road so leaning towards 5.13.

Looks amazing! Great build. You've inspired me to remove my end caps and go stubby.

NC to Cali, nice spread!
Thx Paul. I used to live in VT and did a 4000+ mile trip up thru Canada to MN, WI, MI, IL, MO, TN, and NC. I have since moved to SoCal.

I recommend getting one of these: Link
(Called an Eraser wheel)

These are what pros use when pulling off decals before fixing and painting damaged parts. I have one and it’ll take all that off with ease. Get some de-greaser so you can easily wipe the eraser shavings afterwards. It won’t hurt the paint and will take all that off much faster than scraping.

Here’s a pic of mine:

This was me a few months ago - props to the Jeep engineer that developed that adhesive. They should sell it and put Gorilla glue out of business. Haha.

A vinyl professional recommended a steamer to me and it helped a lot. Give that a shot if you have one. They're cheap to buy compared to other recommendations that have been provided.

Good luck!
