What did you do TO your Gladiator today? [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS, NO GUN TALK]

[kolbjo]

Had rubicon take off fox shocks installed all around, rubicon take off front springs installed in the front and max tow rear springs installed in the back. Also wrapped the tailgate Jeep badge in with carbon fiber vinyl wrap to give it some contrast against the black stripe.

Cheap and easy safety upgrade for around $40

Would love to know how you did that wrap!

Nice! I was thinking about getting the access one as well to work with my Rebel rack

This is the only cover that works with most racks.

Took her back to the dealer last night. They are taking her to a shop in Columbus In. that is going Rhino the bed, rustproof or fog the body panels and undercoat the underside. I called the shop and ordered up the Weathertec mud flaps, wanted them to install the mud flaps before all the work underneath. Then she goes back to the Jeep dealer for a ceramic coat on the paint. I discussed what to do for the factory tonneau cover and they are going to Scotch brite it along with the interior.
Also have Don making a custom Gladiator helment, with the grill and Jeep headlights in it for a front licens plate,ow and a alien chaser for the Jeep in the window.
Mann i can't wait to get her back

Hey @UncleChanBlake ! I ordered everything on Amazon. Both the vinyl on the tailgate and the letters are 3M 2080. When doing the tailgate I took the letters off with fishing line and cleaned all the extra tape of really well, then I removed the lights and camera. I then outlined where I wanted the tailgate wrap with knifeless tape, cleaned the area again and layed the wrap on the tailgate and worked out the bubbles the best I could and used a little bit of heat from a hair dryer when I thought it was needed. Wrapping the letters was a little trickier, it took a little more heat from a hair dryer and cutting with an razor blade. For the most part it went fairly smooth, outside of the sharp corners. It just took a little more time. I've also never done any of this before and it turned out ok, so most anybody should be able to do it.

Nothing yet, but I just placed my ordered for drop in replacement LED bulbs and a molex block for the aux wires.

Was a busy day yesterday. Loaded up the Gladiator with everything that I had bought over the weeks waiting for her arrival.

• Started off with a full detail and ceramic coating.
• Rydonair Stubby Antenna
• Rugged Ridge door sill
• JoyTutus Floor mats
• JoyTutus Grab handles
• Bestop Sunrider (easily my favorite purchase so far)

Hothead Headliners are up next.

Nice...hey quick (and probably dumb) question about the stubby antenna...the Amazon link says it's for JT but then specifically references Rubi/Sahara...is that just "all in the title" of the listing...or is there something specific about this that only works on certain models?

I have a Sport S and have been looking for something small exactly like this, without degrading reception.

Thanks

Mopar roof rack

Looks great...can I ask for a link to those matte black pieces on the hood/side? Those are sweet and look great. Also can I ask about what wheels/tires those are? And if lifted?

Ac couple days ago, but been busy

Had plans to install the RC 3.5" lift, but one of the front spacers didn't make the trip (thanks FedEx). CarID was no help (again), but a call to RC direct and the part was on its way. Hope to have it installed next Wednesday!!

Which tires/wheels are those if I may ask?

JCR full with the access literider. Perfect fit.
