Some pics of my Jeep (goodbye black grille)
Tuesday, July 14, 2009 5:24 PM
So I sanded down my hella 500 covers, and I had them professionally painted along
with my grille, and rear license plate trim. I chose a gray metallic to match the parts
I had powdercoated in hammertone previously (my rims and my bumpers).I think it
looks way better than it did with either the black or the chrome grille. I still need to fix
the drivers side bumper cap; it's on the list.

That looks pretty good. I don't recall seeing pictures of it before, but that look works well for it.

Is that a street jeep or do you get it dirty?

It's my daily driver, so I try to keep it clean. I never liked the term street-jeep for some strange reason.
Also, it's hard to call it a street jeep because it's hard to call what we have in my town as streets. Just ask slvrblit.

I like the gas tank skid plate, did you make that?

The jeep looks good but could use a body lift

I like the headlights, they are different...

Overall I like it!!

And the new look > old

You just gotta do something with those tail lights tho.

The headlights are bi-xenons; I've been running them since 2005. The rear skid plate came from a German tuner called antec. It had a stainless steel finish, but I had it glass-blasted/ powdercoated hammertone to match the rest of my stuff. I have new bilsteins and new tires so I have no plan to lift it anytime soon. I am considering an OME 2" lift when it's time for new tires. However, doing a lift properly isn't cheap (regearing costs and arm and a leg).

Those tailights are super rare, and most Cherokee guys keep asking me for them (they're just like our OEM tails only the middle portion isn't amber). Having said that, I am working on something

Sweet can't wait to see what you end up doing.

I got a few locals here with those tails and one guy with very similar headlights.
