Welcome! The jeep looks pretty badass. What purpose do the metal cables going from the roof to fender serve? Offroad n00b here.

Thanks! Only got about $4500 total into it including purchase, repairs, and mods excluding oil changes and gas. They're the limb risers. They're for deflecting limbs from hitting and breaking my windshield.

It's more or less a rear sun visor. I just like the way it looks, and if I track it its not going very fast. Glad you like me though!  Heart

That color is awesome. I know a guy that does wraps in hburg. Also look into Raail airwrap products on Facebook. They are making amazing products that are like plastidip but a million miles ahead in technology.

Raail looks awesome but I don't have a sprayer.

I think Indecisive Purple is the closest to that wrap color.

Brewery Engineering is a thing? Sweet.

How much does a wrap cost? Asking for a friend.

$3-5k for a quality job. I think the Raail stuff is around $2-3k. This Raail color has me all hot and bothered. Octane Red.

Soooo here's an update since I kinda forgot about the forum. I finished my one year at JMU, dropped out, and am now an HVAC technician and have completed two years of trade school. I have since sold the Acura, and bought a 2001 Chevy S10 and a 2015 GMC Sierra.

Didn't know there was one, but I shall. I'm not on the forum too often (it's been like two years lol), but I will make a new GroupMe account and post my name on here so I can be invited in to talk in my off time. 

Absolutely love that truck! Special edition color is gorgeous, and with a new stainless exhaust and a tuner it has enough power to embarrass some lower end sports cars with a 4WD brake stand launch stoplight to stoplight. Can't feel the S10 or the Jeep on a steel trailer behind me either.

Here’s a few pictures of the behemoth. Sorry for possible bad image quality, just got TapaTalk and they want me to pay for full size images.
