Such a big gain with such little effort. It's the tiny details like this that make this forum so useful.
...and it will look cool to those guys up in Hickory!

Looks good. I started painting my Jeep flat green. The chrome looks like crap with it. I have always hated chrome, so I'm thinking I'll sand and hit it with flat black. I hate bling.

Nope that is suppoosed to be the front end of a CJ or TJ, but no big deal i was just giving him a hard time. I like the anti Bling and may think of it my self but only if i brake out the front grill or something, in other words have a reason to replace it
