I opted for the fog lights by "Unity" for the Jeep's rear "work lights."

I did some "negotiating" with my Body Shop-Band Parents, and it looks like they will be painting it after all! Painting should begin next week!

Got the Unitys all wired up. They look the part when on, though admittedly aren't "orange" enough when off. Also got my vanity plate in. First time in my life I have ever ordered a specialty license plate!

Very pleased with the Delta fog lights I ordered (seen here just resting on the bumper). I think these look almost just like the original factory fog lights...

I can't wait to see the finished product. Is your jeep going to be a daily driver or will you be using it for, "weekend excursions" type deal?
