I got my '07 Sahara JKU in September of '11. Been adding a few things here and there to make it my own.

Lots of cool ideas from the jk-forum the first of which was a home-made grill insert. Made from rain gutters, of all things

Nice JK

The cool thing about a jeep is it starts with a blank canvas, and then imagination sets in! Thats when it truly becomes YOUR JEEP.:thumb:

Cool! And so true. I had a CJ-7 and for years I worked on it, restoring it, until I finally got it back to almost original condition. I loved that Jeep. I sold it to fund this purchase. No restoration needed. So I can focus on making it mine. Well, limited budget (pronounced "the wife") permitting. Lol.

What rear are you looking to get?[/QUOTE

Not sure. Thats on my "not too urgent" list.
First, I want to get a lift and bigger tires.
Once I get that done I'm thinking of getting the Teraflex Tailgate Carrier to mount the spare without having to upgrade to a full bumper/carrier combo, depending on the cost.

Actually, I'm very happy with it. I ordered it without the fog-lights, because they weren't even available yet, I got the end caps with the fog-light cut outs months later. Compliments throughout. Plus, the service from RC is top notch.
