Cool Post before and after pics of your XJ

Post up some before and after pics of your XJ's.

Pics from when you bought it and how it looks today. Show off all your hard work people.

......I'm not sure if a thread like this exists here. I tried searching but everything I tried came up with this: The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search. So apologies if this has been done before.

When I bought my 1998 XJ Sport with UpCountry Package on May and after a few months. I've gotten it running good, bought some Cooper ST's, Cragar soft 8's and new brake rotors and pads. Bedlined from the door crease down plus mirrors, fender flares and bumpers. Repainted the grille and headlight bezels. And installed 2 Kenwood and 2 Pioneer speakers and a Pioneer Headunit a few days ago. New TPS and 4WD sensor were replaced and new springs, shocks, steering stabilizer and headlights are coming in a few weeks. Its been a great experience
Edit: Also removed door trim and replaced broken tail lamp housing

I unfortunately bought my jeep with the lift but it was such a great deal I couldn't pass it up. Also the wheels werent black the day i bought it. And those are the most recent pics I got. I also have now a new landl front bumper instead of that stocker.
