View of my hood vents from under the hood. I really like how they turned out. Working on the body some more and making grill inserts this evening. Only about a week out from primer!!! I'm stoked.

The tubing for the rock sliders cost me a whooping $6.00 at the scrap yard and was very easy to make. I think they look just as goo as any you can buy. I'm very pleased with them.

It's funny. We lined up the front end this evening and was testing it out driving up and down the road. You should have seen the expression on people as we drove by. LOL!!!!

I thought this was sweet and figured I'd share it as well. Unfortunately it is a piece nobody will notice when its done. The plastic molding behind the wheel on the front fender will no longer work because the fender is cut too small and there isn't enough of anything to mount it to. So the Bro N Law made a matching piece out of sheet metal and welded it in. Awesome!!!

Also I was amazed at how well the Bro N Law was able to line this fender all up. This jeep has been wrecked 2-3 times and this fender was twisted all up. It rolled almost straight out like a baja truck. Now it all fits back in nice and snug everywhere and the headlights even sits perfect. The framing behind the fender was even all twisted and is now back where it is supposed to be.
