Curious, plan to do anything with the holes? I've also debadged some but nothing that left holes.

Ok. What the plans? Leaving it blank or do you have a surprise for us?

I haven’t finalized the plan yet, but I have some vinyl coming in. Thinking about a Scrambler theme in blue.

It won’t stay this way long.

KC gravity pro6's on the A pillar, and removed the bumper reflectors, cut and drilled a piece of aluminum angle for a bracket, and mounted KC cyclones in the rear for backup / work light

Installed some Oracle Oculus LED with Halo Headlights. I absolutely love how they turned out!!!

Installed some locking hood latches.

Waited 2 months for the Diver Down seat covers. Hated covering up the leather but scratched up leather is worse. Steering wheel cover to keep the original in good shape.
good news is the seat heat and steering wheel heat still work as hot as ever! I give the covers 4 out of 5 *’s. I wanted bartacs but the pocket book didn’t. Steering wheel cover is a wheelskins.

How is the high beam vision vs halogen?

So much better. There is no comparison!

Got a good deal on a pair of red tow hooks on fb marketplace so I added a second rear hook to my sport. I wanted to do it without removing the bumper, but I ended up needing a breaker bar to loosen them, and the bumper was in the way.
I drilled holes from the back to use as markers to draw straight line in the front and cut the plastic with a dremmel. It’s “ok”, but once installed you don’t notice it

I got the “retro” ideas for my JL wheels from the JT community. It would have never occurred to me to take things in this direction if it hadn’t been for photos of Gladiators I saw on here.

To thank you guys and to pay it forward, sort of speak, I wanted to share some my own ideas.

To keep with the “retro” theme, and to better integrate the white wheels and chrome hubs with the overall look of the Jeep, I added these white overlays over the Jeep fender letters and chrome handle covers.

Adding the white letters was an easy decision. But, to be honest, it would have never occurred to me to slap chrome covers onto a red Jeep.

Nevertheless, here you have it. It works surprisingly well, too, IMO.

The overlays are $15/pair from Reflective Concepts, and the chrome door handle covers were $20 on Amazon.

I have a few more cheap-and-easy ideas I’ll be happy to share as I carry them out.

Installed some locking hood latches.

How did it go? Easy or hard? Any thoughts on whether they are all stainless parts? Looks GREAT!!!

Installed some locking hood latches.

How do they lock? Those look like the same ones I have on my JKU and mine do not lock. Thanks!

Technically, it isn’t me doing it to my Gladiator. But it’s getting new gears today. 4:88s.

I have them on my Glad

I have them on my Gladiator...simple install. I don't like the way the instructions have them installed...like shown in the picture. If you switch side they seem less likely to scratch your paint. All the not coated parts seem to be SS.
