I'm checking this out tomorrow at a local dealer. Think it'll look funny if I put a 1-2" lift, slightly bigger A/T tires, and some custom bumpers on it? All the chrome makes it look like a street queen lol. Anyone have a Limited built like this?

I think it would look nice. It seems to sag a lot in the front though, how old are the springs? |

It's an '05 with 80k so not too old. |

keep the chrome, get bumpers, maybe go with black bumpers and repaint your fender flares black? nice thing about the limiteds, is theyre a hell of a nice jeep and you can do about anything to them you want and it just looks better and better |

one guy put a black grille on his white limited, and i think it looked really good. there pretty cheap at a dealer, or ebay or if your lucky a junkyard. maybe somone can find the pic, or photoshop it. |

I'm not sure... haven't designed them yet. 
But I do like the look of this one (Fulltimer's truck), though I probably won't get a winch: 
I made these for XJ's for a while and had fun with it.

If you do design one based off of the one I have I could give you an idea or 2 about changes. If you want to off road it I would get rid of the cute little things under the rocker panels. One hit and they would be history. Terry |

I’m probably in the minority, but I like the chrome look.

I think the chrome does look bad. My first attempt at getting it toned down a bit on my 07 Limited.... 
The it chipped a bit and the chrome showed through, now I have a painted (Sport) grilled that is black. Others have gotten the grey ones that sport models have. I am trying to loose all my chrome. I have sport grey side mouldings to put on as soon as I can find the time to clean her up and switch them out. |
