Made a tool box today and got rid of my carton and bought some plywood for a steal. I went in expecting to pay 30 bucks for a huge slab of plywood and their ended up being a 5ft by like 5ft scrap piece by the saw and the guy cut it to my measurements and told me the total is was 4 dollars I was like oh score so I bought some paint and went to work.
This is what the end product came out to be, Its an amp mounting surface and a box for all my jeep items you know things you need as a jeep owner.

re-tinted my taillights (the original tint was faded) and clear coated them. Did the 3rd brake light as well and decided to add a little touch to it...

The thing I did over the last 2 days plus working was the worst thing I've done to my XJ. Upgrading my injectors to the 784's on my '00. First the tip that connects to the fuel rail broke off on two of the old injectors and got stuck inside of the rail. Now I had to buy a whole new rail. I found out Jeep has the exclusive right to the rail and is the only manufacturer, their cost $257. So I bought it.
Secondly the electric connectors that plug into the injector have a red slider that locks them in place. All 6 broke...I should say disintegrated. I have to search for a place to buy them...
Third when attempting to install the new rail the aluminum fuel line snapped in two spots. Now I need a new fuel line...
I am stuck and don't have a clue on what to do except have it towed to a mechanic...
This ended up being a nightmare because now I'm fighting with the gf about how much of MY money I'm putting into the XJ...
