Yeah good move with the bumper etc. Keeping it mild at first is a good way to go.

Dude! Those rims are the tits! They look like the stock xj chiefs... only black, what size are they? good work so far

[joe2feathers]

its all in phases ...i figured id get all these little things done first before the lift and larger tires...the cutting on the flares really loosened them up in the front so im sure they will be comming off soon..lol...now if i can just track down my dam electrical problem im having...i know its somewhere in the wiring harness's for the throtle body ..going to the TPS ... those are the stock rims that came on the heep ..laredo rims i guess??

Looking good Joe!

Lookin' good! I noticed your rims on another thread. I am thinking about a set of stock steel rims painted black to mount when I get to go out "wheelin". What did you paint the bumper with?

You're up on the north side, aren't you? Castleton area? If so, you'd better watch out, those high and mighty schmucks up in Carmel might start looking down their noses at you! I live over here by Ben Davis HS, with the po' folk.

i know its not the same, but on my bumper, that looks indentical to his in terms of color, i used rustoleum satin black spray paint. just sand it with some fairly rough grit sand paper before painting it, and use about 3-4 coats...

[joe2feathers]

cool fire hawk i know where ben davis is ..i work over off of 46th and keystone ..marcy village apartments ...but yeah i live on the north side ..96th and allisonville..and to hell with the uppity schmucks ..they drive by with mommys cherokee and wish they could cut theres up but yeah give me a halla we'll roll out somewhere...just keep your eye out you'll see me around somewhere...as far as the paint well its the flat satin rustoleum i will go over it in a gloss but didnt have time today..rims are stock alum..laredo rims ..lighty sanded and triple primed flat black primer ..with two coats gloss high heat black

[peeweeXJ]

Your xj came with a chrome grille, didn't it? Did you use the same paint?

[joe2feathers]

yeah same paint as the bumper ..primed and painted high heat gloss black just the bumper is dull flat black right now
