I spent all day masking and painting most of the interior of the front seat. The dark vinyl on the dash is now silver and the black dash piece around the stereo and the black piece around the gearshift is now blue! Looks like a brand new car now!

Collected this wire at work. I got 2 25ft lengths. Going to use it for a second battery setup

Powersteering died monday and is finally catching up with my wrists. I'll get it fixed this weekend. Getting my powdercoated stuff back tomorrow or Friday. Winch will be here tomorrow. Can't install winch until I swap out my new front bumper tie-in's as well as possibly replace the steering gear box while I have it out.

If you told me you were gonna do that, I would've called you an idiot and told you to buy a Honda. Especially with that steering wheel.
But it actually looks really good. I like it

Thanks guys. I get worried when I do stuff like this cuz I don't want it to look retarded but I usually do a good job. I just try not to get too crazy with it and my projects usually turn out alright. My jeep is like a hybrid between off road and more of a show truck. I keep my installs clean and I make sure everything looks good.
