I'd leave them shiney silver the way they came on it so they will reflect more light. I don't understand people painting their light surroundings and then install auxillary lights because they don't have enough illumination.

haha, yeh. they are pointed a bit high, they came with the bumper when i bought it. The mount that it's on is pointed that direction, i have to custom cut some plastic spacers on an angle or something to be able to point them down right.

Just got my 2005 TJ-X on Friday. Took for some gentle off road play on Sunday and put the 31x10.50x15's from my XJ on her to check the fit. Fit great and feel great, gonna keep them on, just got to get them put on the TJ rims to go with the rest of her!

New souvenir, I'm going to buff it out. Guess the wifey was pulling into a parking spot at the gas station. The person in front pulls into a spot, she pulls into the spot beside them and they kick open their door. Guess what happen next....
Guess girls/women don't have parking spot etiquettes. If you see someone pull into a spot - you know they're going to get out eventually, don't pull in next to them especially after you saw them. And esp when we have NYC yahoos/transplants in the area that are in rush all the time here esp in the AM.
Isn't this akin to guys and the going to the unrinal rule (don't pick one next to someone, unless there isn't any room or you're at a game/concert of some sort).

Well since my 2002 X is stock, i have been on a little shopping and selling spree. Ordered my 2.5" RC lift. Which should be in today. Also swapped my 33's i had on my YJ for a set of brand new 31x10.50's on Moabs...SWEET! I am heading down to the shop today to have our welder measure me up for some rock sliders and a steering box skid....all free to me...even better. I will post up pics of the lift install and how the rockers go.
