heres how i cleaned mine up... and made some use out of it... you pretty much just go with it once you start... however you like it done is how you do it... chopping the top is really really easy... not as big a deal as one would think...

and as i figured i would i already busted a taillight cause they stick way out without a hatch... so plan on moding them... im going to use LED trailed lights and mount them flush in the body... also on the inside of my jeep where the plastic used to be that covers up the 4 big holes around the wheel wells im going to used aluminum diamond plate... seal and bolt them to the body... this way i can still get in there if something happens with wires or something... and with the black herculined floors the diamondplate should look sick and really stand out... just $135 a sheet right now so waiting till it comes down... lol

i wanna run like how the military H1's do in the back at angle with some type of water proof fabric for the winter... it aint gotta be perfect but even alittle will keep i warm... i used to cook with no back glass so little holes arnt a big deal... maybe just use some snaps to hold it down... but im self employed in construction type stuff and the slow season is here so probly wont be spending the moneys...

yeah... looks really good man... i thought about going all out on it like that but i figured im gonna beat it up probly anyway and i surely dont have the moneys... lol... i am gonna clean the back up around some LED trailer lights... easiest and cheapest for me so... hey do you have pics of your roll bar mount points? i was debating on this and make it where i can kinda mix it up later with a small exo for the front... or just do a full exo... but deff need something...
