rear bumper with lights
Im wondering if anybody has any plans or prints for a rear bumper with the tail lights in the bumper for an xj. This is the rear of my xj. As you can see i cant replace the factory light cover.

my driver side was not as bad as that but with a little masage with a hamer and framing spike (that was fattend off) from the inside of the jeep and the tail light fit back in. Pull out the plastic peace on the interior or just move it out of the way and push the metal back till the tail light will bolt on. If you spend enough time you can get the tail light to look normal from the back.

If this is your daily driver, your best bet for a reasonably price fix would be one of two things:
1. Go to the JY and see if you can cut a panel off. Or if there is someone else in your area parting with theirs.
2. Like wildcat said with the jcr panels. Buy the quarter panels w/ built-in light fixtures.
-If you do consider this route, buy JCR Panels and the lower rock panels they sell as well. Massage out the original panel as much as you can w/out causing more damage. Cover the original panel with something like Herculiner to help prevent future damage of rust. Chop off the rock panels and mount the new ones on.
Less than $1000.00 either way. Good luck.
