Rampage frameless sailcloth with bestop no drill header, door surround/tailgate bar combo.
Also a possible kickers 5.25 front. 6 1/2 rear.

Sounds like a good plan. What size MTRs? I really wanted some, but could only afford the Duratracs. I think that assymetrical pattern is pretty cool. Your parents cool with you modding, but not wheeling? That's a bummer.
