Got the fenders form the JY as well. Cut them at my friends shop. I'd like to get some after market but these will do for now. I still need to repair them so they match the rest of the paint.

Rustys enrty gaurds. Pulled the weather striping from a 98 XJ(big difference). After pulleing the carpet I got rid of any rust and wiped it with acetone. Sealed it with krylon but plan on lizard ski proofing it.

Got the headliner out and had no rust. Still have the headliner but when I tried to pull the cloth away it would tear the foam apart.
Refurbished all my seats by washign the covers. They are all like new again.
