Since it is getting bug season in Florida, I wanted to protect my hood and possibly the windshield from bugs. I looked an a number of options and decided on the Auto Ventshade 436148 Aeroskin II Textured Black Flush Mount Hood Protector for 2018-2018 Jeep Wrangler JL and found it for $88 on Amazon. I like the shield since it matches the texture and color of the from bumpers and painted fender trim on my JLUR. You simply use the double sided 3M tape (included) to affix the shield to the hood. I love the low profile!

Got the tuffskinz foam cup holders in but I’m not sure I like them. They seem to block the light of the cup holder.
@jlsahara

I have had them installed in my center console cup holders for 7 months now. I really like them!

Yes, they do block the light output in the cup holders a tad but not that much..

Actually, I like the lighting with the inserts better.. not bright but you see light in bottom to aim your cup/can at.

The inserts, look good ... come up easily to clean..

@BbyGrlJJ and I picked up clear side markers from our neighbors @Diode Dynamics. They look great! Thanks guys! The product fit well and had no issues installing. I do have a quicker way to install these, check my build thread and will post in their thread on these as well. :rock:

Painted the my Sahara grille inserts “Polished Metal Metallic”, has a nice dark matte and metallic grit to it. Got rid of that cheap plasticky feel of the trim panels. Bumpers are next on the list.

Whats’s the offset on those - are those 33s?

Really tried my best to take a passable photo for you at night(looks way better in person), my phone camera doesn’t have the dynamic range/sensitivity to capture both the Jeep and the headlights. Haven’t had the time to take photo of my Jeep during the day yet, as I don’t drive to work and leave early in the day. I will take some over the next few days and show you better photos.
