I need help with this please

[Escape.idiocracy]

Wheel spacers I did not think of. I know the beauty in this is its capabilities off road and I fully intend on taking it some crazy places. But I want to do so without destroying the appearance as well. Thanks for the input. Just wish I would have been able to get the sport s at least

Make sure you pick up hub centric spacers….. this will allow the weight to be placed on the hub vs the wheel lugs.

Building a Jeep “usually” takes time….

I’m my only advise to “building” a Jeep- be methodical…. When I built my JK, I tried to be as frugal as possible…. I learned a lot…. The saying buy once cry once could not be appliedin a better scenario.
Sit back and enjoy the ride for now…. Get some under body protection so you don’t destroy anything when wheeling is HUGE…..

Make a plan…. Stick to the plan…. Make sure you consider all options…. Long run wise like do I want long arms? Do I want to 3 link the rear suspension….

a lot of times people rush out there get a lift and tires for the aesthetics…. But half the crap they purchased will need to come off because it doesn’t function off road like it “looked”…. Another thing is a lot of parts do not go together….. long arm front cannot go on all manufacturers skid plates…. And round and round….
Sometimes one move triggers 3-4 other moves- and even worse sometimes the supporting moves cost more than the one thing you wanted in the beginning…..

You don't need bigger tires just wider like the truck bros run. Get some 31-32× 12.5 tires with a fake beedlock rim and get some 1" spacers and they'll stick out quite a bit getting you instant respect. Get some red tow hooks and maybe do some accent painting in red with your door hinges and front grill cover. That would look crazy mean. You could also add a custom sticker on the hood that said something like, "bad to the bone" or "supertoughtruck" or something like that. The skies the limit.

I recently saw a thread on the Kicker HS10 sub. $300ish and fits perfectly behind the seat. Might be a good idea

Jealousy is all it is lol. What do you think looks better? Your honest opinion. I'm going to place stinger bar in front of face and honestly didn't see a face until everyone started saying it.

I too would sell that grill if you can and out that money back into something else. This funky grills don’t make anything look “aggressive”. It’s more of a turnoff, but to each their own and if it suits you then go for it. Not a fan of a huge stinger bar either. A simple bar to protect the winch (if you have one) is ideal and practical.

Don't let these guys sway you OP, the angry grill intimidates alot of dudes. Like I said earlier, paint the grill red to really set it off and do some custom badging. You could also do some red led lights under the truck and wheel wells to run at night for a cool affect.

Oh yeah I'm curious for the input but it's going to be my daily baby on and off road. Imma make her right and take plenty of pics right off the bat. Wish I had that level and some 35s on her already though. Just researching if the 35s are healthy for her before that

Thanks for pitching the ideas though I like the red and also always loved the neon green. It's going to be a sight to see either way
