Swapped bumpers again. 4th times a charm :facepalm:
I really like the Rival bumper I had on prior, but I like that the Road Armor tucks the winch further down and has spots for integrated lights.

Funny I was told my JCR molle panels were on back order until May 8th on Monday and they were sending me a refund.....
I got home today and sitting on my porch we’re my panels and roto pax. LOL

The front panel didn’t come tho, maybe later this week.

Enjoyed rolling around on the garage floor a little bit today while installing Rancho Rockgear differential skid plates. Along with Rock Hard 4x4 control arm skids. The Rock Hard skids arrived black. I paint them red. Not really necessary but what the heck.

Added another decal to complete my Star Wars theme. They newest is the banner with Rebel Logo at the rear of the cab. This goes along with the hood decal, tie kills on the door, K2S0 on the gas filler door and the words Rogue One in the Star Wars alphabet on the driver door as well.

On a side note, I bought a detailed and too scale CAD drawing of the Gladiator that made designing the decal a snap.

Did some after install maintenance items... adjusted my steering wheel to how I like it for down the road, adjusted settings on my falcon shocks, installed my sunrider for hardtop and deleted my cowl mounted lights.
Then made me a steak dinner!

I took what someone much more knowledgeable about electrical than me to heart said (thanks again @capercrew02) and installed a dedicated 12v port behind the rear driver's side seat for my fridge, to complement my recent inverter installation.

I drilled in to and hard mounted it on the removable panel back there, so I could easily go back to stock if need be. It's a screw-in port, so no worries about the plug shaking loose on rough roads.

No interference at all with the function or movement of the seat, and there is clearance between it and the inverter as well.

Decided to plastidip the grille today. I was pretty bummed when I found out the sport doesn't come with the removable body-colored trim pieces around the sides of the grille, but a little tape job and plastidip got the look I was after. FYI, I used a 50/50 mix of denatured alcohol and water to clean the grille. I then used electrical tape to mask off the outer trim pieces instead of painters tape since it's easily stretched around the grooves of the grille, and then 5 coats of plastidip (peel the tape as soon as you're done with the last coat otherwise it won't tear clean if it's fully dry). Hopefully it holds up as long as some suggest, but if it doesn't it's only $10 lost.

Did you remove the honeycomb? Looks good. I have the plasti dip. Just working up the courage to actually do it lol.

Tiny, but quite handy thing (for those of us who air down our tires): Added Extreme Outback tire valve caps. The lanyard holds the cap in place while you're airing down and up. No searching for one when you accidentally drop it on the ground. Still have a Genright Genesis dual-battery kit and two Odyssey batteries to install, and four KC LZR lights for the front bumper. I'll need to fabricate up some type of bracket for the lights.

Awesome! Red - why not! Good luck with the install. It was a bit tough. Post some pics.
