HOrnbrod Posted September 24, 2013 Posted September 24, 2013 Found this on the web. Can't say I care for it too much........... Seats look good though.
buffalob Posted September 24, 2013 Posted September 24, 2013 or on acid. oops did I say that out loud?
88whitemanche Posted September 24, 2013 Posted September 24, 2013 I would like them more for a trail rig...can't really hate on the creativity
GirsMJ86 Posted September 24, 2013 Posted September 24, 2013 Can't say I care for it too much........... :eek: Don saying he doesn't care for something shiny that could be added to his rig?! In all seriousness though... NO. This was a big thing over on the FSJ forums since those door panels are worse than the ones in the MJs. They were also using large pieces of black textured plastic.
HOrnbrod Posted September 24, 2013 Author Posted September 24, 2013 It's a bit over the top - quite a bit. These are better, but not by much. Good for hiding rust though..........
Comanche County Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 I hear ya Don, IMO diamond plate is for semis, chicken coops, and hog trailers...its like a zit on a swim suit model, just a distraction from the good stuff. But hey what ever floats your boat.
GirsMJ86 Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 The only acceptable use of diamond plate I've seen so far... is the entrance sill in that teal XJ.
HOrnbrod Posted September 25, 2013 Author Posted September 25, 2013 I did fab up a set of those diamond plate sills quite awhile ago, but didn't like them. They seemed out of place, and I sold them on Ebay. Then I modded some ZJ stainless door sill plates. They looked good, but were stamped "Grand Cherokee", so got rid of them too. Went back to the originals and one of these days will make a set using brushed stainless w/o lettering. Not hi-pri on the bucket list though.
GirsMJ86 Posted September 25, 2013 Posted September 25, 2013 Seeing those ones Don, I can understand why you ended up getting rid of them honestly. Good idea, but boy would that get to me with time. Looks out of place for sure seeing it as the focus of the image. Maybe wouldn't be so bad if they were black like the factory ones are. Think some powder coated aluminum would be overkill? :brows: Maybe Monstaliner would be the more cost effective choice.
