Almost a month old. Added the Rebel Off Road Half Bed Rack (in prep for a rooftop tent) and the satin black grille to my trail cam grille.

Easy transferring the trail cam to the black grill?

No, it’s a pain in the ass. You have to transfer the entire middle honeycomb part and the molded-in captive clips are very difficult. I transferred it to the black grille and had to re-do it because the threaded inserts for the trail cam bracket screws need to be transferred too. I used 2 trim tools and it make it easier to undo the clips. Make sure you read the instructions that come with the grille because 3 surrounds need to be transferred from the old grille too.

This video gives you a good idea:

Installed some KC Slimlite LEDs and the mopar brush guard. Wasn't sure if I'd like it but I think I do!

Did you notice any handling changes after adding the steel bumper?

month old as of this weekend
Looks sick! Any close up of the Rigid lights on the front bumper? I'd like to get something similar on the OEM bumper. How do you like the window visors? What brand are those?

naw, I measured ride height before/after the steel bumper and the difference was negligible...maybe less than 1/8". Biggest difference was the ko2's.

Looks great!!! I'm researching the Pros and Cons of doing the ceramic coating. Your thoughts and if you don't mind approximate cost? Thanks

I can’t think of any cons with a ceramic coating. I’ve had my last three cars ceramic coated and will be doing my Mojave myself when it comes. Only con is within the first week you can get water spotting but after that week or so you should be good to go!
