05 Flame Red TJ Build

Enjoy your winter wonder land. Got to let the kids have fun and towing them back up the hill is great. You get to play and so do the kids.

You said it! My hip was bothering me that day anyway, so I only hiked the hill twice. Most of the time I was right where I want to be, "behind the wheel."

I was wondering where you were in the move. That was the biggest snow we’ve had since we arrived in August of 2018. Glad you got everything inside first. We went out to the ORV so the kids could have a 250 foot bomb of a sled run and I’d haul them back up for another round!

Let me know when you want these MC extended shock mounts. They’re taking up space on my workbench. Along with 900 other things! I could bring them by sometime or you can come over if you want to take a break. Happy New Year!

Poor kid is cursed!

Looking for feedback.

Ive been contemplating changing the color scheme of the Jeep. Flame Red Jeeps are hard IMO. I love the color and won’t change that, but I fell in love with the silver bumpers and sliders with color matched fenders/flares on this Genright rig.

My problem is Im not sure it will look good when you put the black hardtop on. What do you think?

I've been thru this phase. I was getting tired of white/black, and at one point tried gray as the offset color. I quickly came to my senses. The red/silver doesn't look bad though, so you could have something there.

You’ve been thru every phase.

Kind of sad and pathetic when you put it that way, lol!

I liked the Black and White at first but dislike it now which is why I am doing the corners and fenders in white and then just the flares in black. I don't know what I'm gunna do with my rockers and bumpers yet.

Silver looks good with white and black too!

So black flares & the outer skin of the rockers & silver bumpers & the inner of the rockers?

Just like the pic in post #2,424, color match flares, silver rockers, and bumpers. What do you think?

The camo wraps are interesting

Exactly how I feel

Hey, I used to live in FBG, before I left the great state of TX and moved to WA. I must be crazy. You wheel with Tim and Bob at Hidden Falls and Wild Caves. I used to haunt those trails.

I like it, silver for the roll cage too, yes?

It’s the black hardtop that gives me pause in the color scheme.

I could definitely pull that off. It’s the black hardtop that gives me pause. I could redo
it silver. I’m not too opposed to that. I’ve never seen it. May be too much silver, but it’s borderline to me and might look totally awesome.

P.s. I hadn’t thought of that. So another great observation/point you make.

The red and silver looks awesome. But so does the red and black. I bet it would look fine with the hardtop but I can’t get my brain to picture it lol
