Just dreaming a bit. Its not ready for paint but ive taped off the stripes about ten times. I dont want to get ready to paint and realize I cant tape worth a shit :o

Also I got my new plate made. The deer is a bit louder than I thought it would be but oh well.

Im not sure how its going to work out but, Those brackets I made are for the whip antenna. I have a couple of thick rubber grommets that will go in the slots and hold it to my light bar without grounding it.

wow Kentucky still has stamped letter plates :o it looks good with the deer :D

Yeah running with the windshield down was always fun in the old farm CJ we had ;) especially when you hit a BIG puddle and get a face full of water mud and what not :lol:


practice taping is always a good idea
Roads Where were going a Delorean will never go, BUT a JEEP sure will!.

Looks good so far. My painters used some real thin blue tape to set the lines then some masking tape with a plastic skirt to go around the blue lines. Worked better than regular masking tape it looked like.

If you want me to make you one of my hardened mounts I could weld something together pretty easy.

Im going to try mine and see how it works out, but I would love to see a close up of yours.
