nice price. If you dont want to take off the moldings to paint them, theres a product called forever black that works very well (dont get back to black from mothers, only lasts a few weeks before it fades again)

Thanks for the info will have to keep that in mind for the ones that come to the shop.
This one looks like someone tried to paint them and some paint took and some faded so I think they have to be painted .

My dad painted the fenders on his wrangler with the plastic paint and it only lasted a few weeks. Im unsure on his prep work or what brand he bought but i used the forever black and it looks awesome. Also if your on a budget i bought a thrush turbo exhaust and love the sound to it and it was only 30 bucks.

I also picked up a 98 cherokee a few months ago with 137,000 miles. It also needed a muffler, I got a dynomax exhaust system and magnaflow cat. It was $175.00 with free shiping and a $75.00 mailin rebate for the dynomax. For $100 is a steal, fit well, sounds good and came with everything needed to install. The magnaflow cat was $100 free shiping, spent a total of $200 for the catback exhaust replacement. Good luck with your xj.
