Looks good. I dont think i'd ever own a Jeep, but its all up to you. Word of warning- be careful when you hit hit the windshield wipers to just go across the windshield once- if you arent careful, you'll knock the key and shut the thing off going down the road. I myself have done it in quite a few of our rental jeeps and I have had 8-10 customers say the same thing.

Speaking of do you know any sites that have mods for the...Wk body? is that what it is? Specifically the hemi one, i need an exhuast for my parents becuase it is just hindering performance and MPG big time.

Youve inspired me to get an old like 95-97 Grand Cherokee for my winter beater (as im going to donate my lincoln)
Thanks for the words about the STi

I just picked up the SRT-8 Bumper! One thing I miss about the Grand Am is that everything was cheaper for it. The bumper was $600 + shipping. Now I got to paint it I am the FIRST in the nation to have a SRT-8 front bumper Up Next is the Overland grill (see below) they only offer a color and chrome grill, so I think this grill is awesome with its Brushed Aluminum look, tinted tails, waiting for graxwerks to make my turn signal overlays and wheels and them I'm done. It's amazing how much this forum has helped me with the Jeep and learning about it

CURRENT PICTURES CAN BE SEEN ON MY CARDOMAIN


this is what it will look like...

damn man, that front bumper looks really good. I say you should def. go with gunmetal/black rims with a chrome or polished lip, chrome is everye]where so this is a little more unique, and i think with that bumper, grill , tint and color of your jeep. gunmetal would look realy clean. Great mods so far, post pics once you get thaat damn bumper on, cant wait to see it

The rear is different. I will eventually get the Limited Rear Bumper so I can get center exit exhaust... The side skirts are just painted, unlike mine. The main difference is that its lowered.

Thanks for the kind words guys

Yeah... I have a feeling the SRT-8 Bumper is going to be like $800. I can get the Limited for like $500 and instead of installing a hitch I will instal the exhaust Eventually I'll paint the sills and all, but we will see.. you know how it goes...

Any plans for the STi up and forth coming?

when i worked at a body shop over the summer i was gonna ahve the lower lip of the front bumper, and sills painteed (on the jeep) but they said since it was like grained plastic it might not turn out right and the color might be off, ,again i think ur lucky here too becuase of black, that might make it easier to not notice as much.

as for the STi...wellll i don't have too much coming, in the summer after my job, large plans will be under way, for now itll be a front lip, and getting it tuned in spring
