Any WK2 Opinions?

Where's the personalized license plate? :hmm:

I know, I know. Sticker shock really. I had just renewed my plates on the Cherokee the day before for $130. I'll do something. Just may go with a more generic Jeep plate now. Couldn't transfer over the XJ plates. Mopped myself into a corner on that one.

Wow Rob that's a clean ride!

 

First time I've ever seen under the hood on one...is that the computer mounted right in front of the battery?

Looks like the main PCM in front of the battery. Probably 1 of 6 computers that control this beast.

Very nice!  That's a secksi interior for sure!

Forgot to post. I have since got the Mopar roof rack off CL, plastidipped the wheels, and installed the splash guards.

 

The plastidip has a learning curve for sure. I think I rushed it, and that the wheels were still gooped up with dealer tire shine. I hit them with a rag and some brake clean, but when the dip shrank it started to pull away from a couple areas... That, and the lugs are so tight in the wheel, when spinning the lug nuts on a couple, the dip tore away like twisting a sheet around the lug. I still want to do the rear brow and the grille. Chrome is just too flashy.

do any of the lesser models have regular trim you could swap in?

[Automan2164]

The exterior of this is pretty much the same as them all. They all had this chrome everywhere. The only thing some of the guys do is "Altitude" package grille swaps, as I think it honeycombs the slats behind the grille.
