Are you hating on my stickers sir?

Tight completion this month for my first entry I like it! I wish I had better offroad pics but I'm generally the nerd out taking all the pictures of everyone's else's rig so a decent picture/video of me is a rarity lol.

Nice jeep but lack of decent offroad pics are what stopped me from voting for ya this time. I think if someones gonna build a jeep they better be taking it down harder looking trails then that.
