Hey! name is nick, From minnesota.

Ive had my xj for just over a year now.

Its a 2000 2dr Sport. Patriot blue metallic.

Im bored right now so i thought i would share some pictures of the transformation of my 2000 Jeep cherokee 2door sport.
Day I brought it home and spray bombed the rusty wheels:

Didnt like the way it looked so I cut the bottom frame and removed the diamond plate, then flipped it and welded it atop, then extended the sides out to meet the body:
