Red face Lil' Blue

Heres my jeep. Its a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Sport 2wd with about 170,000 miles. I purchased this xj in july and started planning. In october i was in an accident that caused a little damage. The po of this xj was a woman who drove it to work on a daily basis for years and coated the interior with makeup. the first thing when i got her was clean the interior which took forever and still isnt completely done, i had to scrape the dried makeup off of everything. The only mods so far have been some truckbed liner, upgraded sound, and lights. but on to the future....
My Plans-
1.Get new foglights and clean up wiring.
2. 2-3 inches of lift
3. bigger tires
4. t.b. line the sides, fender flairs, and trim(or take them off)
5. get some body armor.....
6. anything else that comes along

This is my xj, Lil' Blue


( my laptop on top, im on cf trying to figure stuff out)





This is the damage from my "wreck"


You can barely see it
