I ripped all my power windows out and installed manual windows instead. Power accessories on a jeep is a waste!

Painted the chrome "rock guards" with some primer and bed liner. Chrome just doesn't look right.

Those light diffusers probably kill the majority of your light output. That's why I like the Hellas they have the clear lens. For you light output issue see if you can upgrade the harness.

Rock guards look good

Changed out the brake rotors, hoses, and pads the other day. So this morning I head out to bleed the system and just run into more trouble... The bleeder valves on both calibers were seized up and broke off. They'd been soaking in PB for 2 days and I even hit them with the torch and they still wrung off! So I guess I'm off to the Zone for new calibers. Seems like this build has been nothing but headaches If all goes well though, it'll be finished today and I'll be giving her her first test drive since I saved her from sitting on blocks surrounded by weeds for the last 6 years....

Possibly, I guess for 10.00 each then I can't be too disappointed.

It would probably be cheaper to make my own harness with some bigger wire. Especially since I'm running all 4 lights off of the one OEM harness that was supplied.

my roommates GF is just VERY LOUD and kinda a childish person at times. (like yesterday) and while she was being loud it got the dog excited and she was barking and all I wanted to do was sleep... So I excused myself, grabbed my comforter and pillow and went and slept in the jeep.

I am a "walk away before you throw down a punch" type of person.

so I am grumpy today. I slept perfect! but she was still acting the same way even this morning as I just walked in
