I like it dude! 2 questions though, what bed liner did you use on the interior? And what brand of light bars do you have?

ha ha im bad about that but i do have photos!

FYI : 2 things
1. alot of people like my blue lights but no one has asked me if i like them?
i dont....
reason? i cant turn them on to read something whyle driving such as finding heat of vent on my dash.... also every time i open my door people stare plus i can never sneek into my jeep... also i cant see a full range of colors only a blue tint of them, just thought i would let you guys know.

2. doing a lift on a jeep, a MUST HAVE is a pickle fork, or a wedge of sorts came in handy about 6 times, and there not alot of $$$ for alot of uses just my .02¢

Lookin good. Sucks about the laptop. You gotta get a computer so you can update your avatar.

Also you may have already done it or may not care but if you haven't and do that overspray on the hood will probably come off with some rubbing compound, by hand or with a buffer. It would drive me crazy seeing it every day.
