Thank you, the red is actually very close. When I picked the color it was the last red the powder coat company had in stock. It is slightly darker, and doesn't shine quite the same in the sun. Doesn't have that orange ish tint in the sun. But I think its a nice compliment to the rock lobster.

Thank you. It's going to be on hold for a while. Next will be the EVO bolt on coil overs and all the things need for the lift and some EVO rock rails.

Well as of now thinking I may put coil overs on hold indefinitely or at least for quite some time. I think I'm going to get the 3" Enforcer lift with 35's for the time being. Then slowly works way bigger.

As seen by the last post and the 2 pictures I purchased EVO rock rails, powder coated, and installed. I brought them to Low Range 4x4 in Wilmington NC as they are an authorized EVO dealership. While I was there I was talking about wanting to get EVO bolt on's, but having 2 Wranglers (mine and my wife's), it was probably not going to happen. After a great deal of conversation, a few days, and bugging the crap out of Drew at EVO, coil overs will happen, and soon. Thank you to all of the people I bothered at EVO, and thanks to Low Range 4x4, who told me if I bought the bolt on coil overs and had them in stall it, plus wheels, tires, etc. and paid for my wife's wheels and tires, they would buy a BB lift, install it mount, balance, and align the wife's Jeep for free. That is what I call WINNING! Down payment made, ATX chambers purchased. I almost forgot, thank you to my wife for being awesome!!!!

This is looking good and coming along nicely....Liking the 2 dr!!!!
Let me know what you think of the bolt-on coilovers as I am debating those down the road......Also, do they make a different load setting set up on the coilovers for the 2 dr versus 4 dr or do the coilovers come as they are not matter if its a 2dr or 4dr?

Thank you. As soon as everything is installed and I get a test run I will post up my thoughts. Im not sure if there is a different rate or not, you would have to ask the guys at EVO. I called 3 or 4 days in a row and asked a bunch of questions and explained what I wanted, but I never thought of that. Everyone I talked to was knowledgeable and very helpful, so I'm sure they can answer that.

I forgot to post pictures of the rugged ridge hood latches when I installed them ,but they are pretty awesome. No more hood slap when going by large vehicles on a small road, very very easy to install, and they look good to boot.
