Every other section has this stickied so I thought I would start one. Forgive me if its in there already but I could not find it.
Anyway here's what I did.
After removing the different cover for a routine fluid change I decided to paint the cover, it needed a little touching up so I thought I would go ahead and paint it red. I already had some farm equipment paint on hand, I'm pretty sure it will hold up to any temps that might be reached.

Nice! As someone who's <5' (4'9"), I completely understand!:happyyes: How are the Pedal Mates when driving? Worth the cost & install? I've never heard of them. I've been contemplating putting in something like those. I've always 'made-do' with what I had, but the Jeep is definitely not the most comfortable for shorter people. lol. Though, I do let my SO drive the Jeep on occasion and he's 5'7", so I don't want to hinder his ability to drive it either.
Without a doubt worth the cost. Made driving much more comfortable (and I feel safer). My hubby is 5'11" and with the seat all the way back he is comfortable with them.

Best,
E

Removed the stickers/decals, plastidipped the rims and Trail Rated badge, and drilled the mirrors. Next up is polyfilling the soundbar, 303 Aerospacing the plastic, and detailing the interior. How are people holding or docking their phones in there Jeeps?
The little rubber dent under the emergency brake lever holds the older iPhones perfectly.
I use it to hold my Springfield XDM. Barrel down in the rubber and bottom of the mag on the slant. Ebrake holds it ;)

Finished my front 550 Paracord Grab Handles. Front were much more involved than the rear. But they look great and are quite strong.

:iamhappy:

I've done a few mods over the past couple of weeks so I'll post all @ once & I'll try & get several pics tomorrow. I posted a question about 2 weeks ago about getting the screws out holding the dash Oh Sh*t handle trim piece off. I used the information yesterday & took out the 2 screws on that plus the 2 x 2 screws holding the trim pieces on the doors. I also removed the air vents(4) & took them apart so I could paint the little black rings behind the trim rings. I painted everything with copperhead & reinstalled. Several weeks ago I installed a MF 15178 single in & dual out axle back muffler after painting the muffler flat black(bbq paint) but left the chrome tips unpainted. I've got a Willys & I've installed some extra outside black trim so I needed something to break up the black since I think I over did the black accents a bit. I also installed a Banks 41837 intake @ the same time & today I installed a 91 performance tune from my new superchips 3872 Flashpaq. Well, that's it for today.
