It's been a few weeks since I've updated. I ordered new LED Headlights for the jeep and painted the grill assembly and headlight housing...
Here are my new TEMPORARY headlights.. (I set my eyes on some real Halos)

Got a little more done to the jeep. Smoked new taillights, swapped a few goodies. Still waiting on tons of parts to be delivered.
