If you have the tail lights recessed (Frenched?) into the rear like that, you can no longer see the turn signals from the sides like you can with stock.

Maybe need some wee side markers tied into the turn signals to be legal? Dont want to be a downer, just thought about it while reading the last few posts and looking at the pics.

BTW, body work looks tight man.... RED FTW!!!
the man speaks the truth, the caddies also have a side marker that blinks with the signal......definitely some thin to think about.

And the red sticker IS 45 day only, but if im not mistaken, he welded the bumper on.

Your rear shocks arent meant to be run that way. They might be fine but twin tubes hate being mounted upside down.

But I like the flex shots LOL. Whats next?

Heh heh, just went through that today myself. Looked at the box, no instructions. Checked the website, no details... called the shop, no one there who knew?

WTF?

Looked at some pics, and realized all were run opposite to the way you have yours, so I bolted them in boot side up. I realized when installing that the name and model number etc were written so you can read them when installed... so yeah, it was there in front of me.

I was told that SOME are designed to be run upside down.... or either way.

Color is awesome man, will look great! Even if it isn't red.

Zing'

what color primer are you going to lay down underneath it? or are you just spraying over what you've already done? Might look wierd if so.

go with gray primer over the whole Jeep before you paint that gold. if you don't, you'll end up with a darker gold where the jeep is black and a lighter gold where it's gray primer.
