So, my wheels are a bit rough in the paint area. any opinions? I don't want to plasti dip them, i will just wear it off. going to actually paint them. Should I keep them silver, turn them black, paint them gold to match my cherokee, or go with an off color like green/blue/red or something?

Here is an INCOMPLETE list of the things I have done to my XJ since buying it...

Rear diff fluid change
Rear brake lines
rear springs
rear shocks
rear bump stops
Fuel pump
31" tires
Rear drive shaft ujoints
transfer case seal (where the drive shaft enters)
Transfer case fluid change
font axle ujoints
Front brake pads
front brake lines
front springs
front shocks
front control arms
Front bump stops
oil pan gasket
rear main seal
Crank sensor
o2 sensor
coolant temp sensor
radiator
uper and lower radiator hoses
thermostat
Fuel pressure regulator
vacuum lines
brake master cylinder
throttle position sensor
valve cover gasket
radio replacement
cb install
Tailgate supports
intake/exaust gasket
spark plugs
spark plug wires
Distributor cap
head gasket sealer
oil pressure sender
oil pressure guage
catalytic converter
A/C repair (freon)
idler pully
water pump
map sensor hose
wiper blades


Currently it looks like the stuff I used to fix the head gasket has plugged the radiator, so looking at a new radiator...

And it needs an alignment, the ignition is having issues (sometimes doesn't engage the starter motor), the break booster is shot, and its having high idle issues (could be caused by the leaking break booster)
