Paint- airbrushed to look like a WWII Bomber Plane. Look like popped riveted sheet metal, plane exhausts coming out of the fenders. Possible Pin-up on the side. The fender flares will have ported gun barrels actually coming out of them. Grill will look like the shark teeth on the old bomber planes.

It would be much easier on your 90 model because it is the same width in the back as the front. These WJs are a lot narrower in the back so there is a lot of fab involved.

Some days I hope that a tree will fall on the back of my jeep and do just enough damage to total it but not enough to tweak the roof and hatch.

Looking GREAT!!
