my buddy gave me a flowmaster 40 for 10 bucks, i cut my stock exhaust off after the cat, and now am rockin this



sounds EFFIN HEALTHY, but it hangs low and is kind of ghetto and obnoxious, just temporary for now.

 

 

been a while since ive updated but ive done a few things to candace. Wrecked a couple weeks ago and had to rebuild the front end a little bit. here is the carnage.

 

cant attatch images mods!!!! please help!!

 

You sure hate ur front passenger side

 

hahaha apparently. ive gotta get a new fender and rear passenger door and im gonna send her in for paint.

 

i had to replace the header panel, front bumper and fender. Mikefrost here off the forum hooked me up with a header panel that was already the same color of my xj. thanks frosty, im coming to get that door soon LOL

so heres what she looked like after i flattened out that fender and replaced the bumper and header panel.

i decided to go full black out theme, used vht nite shades on all the orange plastic on the jeep, also painted the bumper and grill black. looks a lot better than all smashed up.

 

armaflexed my front fender edges, beat out fender, i think it looks damn clean. check out the beautiful fall colors in that reflection!!!

 

took the rear bumper caps off so i could start pb blasting for the tailbone install. found this cancerous being on my lower 1/4 panel.

 

so i got the tailbone painted and installed and i have some stuff to say about it.
First off, mark from detours was nothing but helpful and is a great guy to work with, the tailbone took about 7 weeks to get to my doorstep. i painted it and went to install it. great sturdy product, feels good, welds are nice, the thing is solid. however i had so many alignment issues it wasnt even funny, to this day i wouldnt use it as a recovery point because i was unable to get two support bolts in through the frame due to nuts welded on the back of the rear crossmember not lining up. install was a pain in tha **** but id say it looks good on the back of candace. and this is what duplicolor bedliner overspray does to bare feet LOL

 

and heres what it looks like installed on candace. i have a better picture with my spare also black. its on my iphone though, ill get it up after work

 

time to cut and fold your rear quarters!

 

Ive been contemplating doing the cut n fold on my rear quarters but i have the tailbone wich means ugly open ended rear bumper. Unless theres some way to close off the bumper and bring it up to the cut n fold, i dont see a clean way of going about it...i posted about trying to trade the tailbone for a cut n fold style rear bumper, well see how it goes. Any ideas?

 

my bumper is cut and has no ends - looks fine to me

 

Your does look pretty good. I think the newer style bumpers are bigger though, and im pretty sure the tailbone makes mine stick out another half inch or so...idk, i really like the cut n fold rear bumpers. Maybe im being too ****.
