Loaded it up, threw the family in and drove to the beach for the week. I must say 100f + AC + loaded down WJ = bogged down WJ at times... Kinda worried me for a bit, but then I came to and realized under the circumstances it did very well.

That's a stock part. After you cut out the opening and drill out about a dozen holes for the studs it pops right on. I would have liked to see it a little tighter to the bumper cover but it's ok. The plastic studs on the back of the bezel were kinda worn down so it didn't pull it in as tight as I would have liked.
I was pretty happy with the color match I got too. The junk I pulled it off had more of a light gray color to it. I found some dark gray plastic spray paint and it matched up pretty well.

Not a fan of the rims but are better than stock. I do like the TAN cladding- did you do that? Thought only can in grey

Just got done putting in a new steering box, and trying to get the air out of the pump right now. Took almost 3 hours total taking my time. Far easier than doing my XJ two years ago were the lines were so tight and the wrench room was limited.
