I've spent a lot of time refreshing things that bug me. I removed the windshield cowl and painted it. It had turned gray and pasty. I painted the silver trim on the front and rear bumpers with bed liner from a rattle can. I blacked out the stock silver roof rack. I also painted all of the black plastic trim on the front bumper and hood scoop. I plan on painting the side window trim but I'm waiting for some garage space to open up. I removed the badges from the driver and passenger doors and the hatch. I painted all of the wiper arms to freshen them up as well.

Thank you, I'm really happy with how it turned out. I have 0 complaints about the ride quality. I would still be happy if the 885s were 10% stiffer than they are, even with the E rated tires. I do not have UCAs yet, caster is out of spec by 2 degrees or so but should have that remedied by winter.

Mud guards are gone to make room for the tires. I was hesitant but I'm happy with it. The rear view looks a lot better.

Hey hearno, your rig is looking awesome! I was checking out your "TO DO" list and wanted to know which bumper you are leaning towards. I had a hell of a time deciding on mine so I'm curious. Also, who are you going to have do your LED gauge cluster swap? Or are you going to do it yourself?

[MENTION=89791]preacher35[/MENTION] I like the look of the Addicted off road bumper. I also like that it's light weight compared to some of the others available. I'm kicking myself for missing out on the group buy.
