I'll humor you with a pic...its just painted red though, but I do like the little accents. There's no rule saying you can't customize your rig, and when your cover comes as bare metal, you have to paint it some color! Aside from being for looks, IMO its much easier to detect leaks with a painted diff cover.

Hey thanks for the pic of the matching diff and body color. I'm right in the middle of painting my rusted diff covers to match my gunmetal TJ. I thought the matching color would look good and it does on your red one. I like the black bolts around the red cover. I'm replacing my old rusted bolts with stainless steel so I think I'll leave them stainless becuase I think it will look good with the Gunmetal Color.
Anynbody else got pics like these with the matching diff cover to body color?
