I'm thinking cleaning mine down to bare steal and clear coating it with black diff covers. yours is pretty close to what I'm going for, glad to confirm I've got good taste too! lol
Thanks man ya I just felt like doing something other than black and It looks really clean bs all black underneath. Also thinking either black grill and bezels with white bumper or black inside the Main bars on the grill and gunmetal bumper like broseph said. Gonna have to think it over. As of now I'm just hoping to get it finished and drivable this weekend. 😃

I tried the double trailer I was using had a failure. It was really weird I was leaving my shop and my black Cherokees door opened into the wind at 50 mph not sure how so I was pulling over and the u bolts snapped on the front axle on the trailer and it slammed down on the tires and shoved the front axle into the back axle. I think max the black jeep is a transformer and was letting me know something was wrong haha. Thank god it didn't happen going 60 mph on 126 there would have been quit the mess with 2 Cherokees and the pickup all tangled together. So I fixed the trailer and ran up to my parents and wheeled the mud till about 10:30. So it was still a good day. I didn't wheel the white one because I would rather do the maiden voyage on sand in case of failure I won't be laying in mud. I have been driving the white one on the road for the last week or so it's pretty fun to drive around.

Well thank god for Max! We don't need anymore wrecks on 126. Cause then we would have to call you "that guy" for blocking traffic for 3 hours. Glad you made it a successful day regardless!
