Project $500 xj
alright so my xj found me on craigslist for $500 bucks. Bone stock, floors were completely rotted, ran great and was gonna keep it stock but youtube jeepers had me drooling at how great their rigs looked and performed lifted with nice big tires on them. so here we go.
ok well first, i didnt like the regular look of the interior, so i painted it really close to my body paint
next was the almost flat black grille i didnt like.. so that went to blue too
then my homemade cold air intake
next was to space out the "jeep" logo cuz since its going bigger, the logo should too
my 3" lift kit came, so i installed it. my tires look tiny...
now i got pics of it with the 31"s flexin a bit on the tree in the yard.

i have a sticker with the same saying bit its smaller, square, and on the rear passenger quarter panel, the one on my back window at the top says, "This Side Up" with arrows on both sides pointing up, lol
other than that, nice buy for 500$, 210k is no big deal, but i think you went a little extreme with the paint! lol i mean i like my blue too but ima leave the interior alone
