Looks really good. I like black XJ's without murking then out and night shading everything.

How much backspacing do your wheels have?

Thanks! I thought about smoking the tail lights and what not when I first got it, but I'm glad I didn't.

And the wheels have a 4 inch backspacing

What's up bro? How'd you go about trimming your rear fenders and what size cut off wheel did you use? Did you fold so you didn't have to cut past the spot welds for your Bushwhackers? (I just got mine so I want them on haha)

I used a 4 1/2 inch cut off wheel and I cut all the way on one and it was a huge pain, so I cut and folded on the other side and it was much easier so I would go with the cut and fold!

My First Build - A 2000 XJ-image-220989727.jpg

I've been thinking about bumpers lately and here are a few sketches. I haven't thought out dimensions yet, but I want to do a nice low profile setup, not too big, doesn't stick out too far, just a nice clean bumper. Right now I'm leaning toward doing a small stinger with some side supports, and maybe do it out of bent square tube to match the rest of the jeep.

Right now I'm thinking I like the second one from the bottom and the top one. I'm worried about the side supports getting in the way of the headlights on the other ones but I don't know if it would be an issue because a lot of people seem to have those
