Finally got my running and side marker lights.

Running/turn signal up about where the fogs are on the newer KJs.

Side marker light is amber LED but looks clear when off

Those are some cool little lights. Where did you get them?

Overall, I really like what you've done. Your approach angle is going to be hard to beat in a KJ.

Motorcycle shop. The front ones are incandescent for now. I have the same thing in LED on order.

Used the stock wiring harness so the hookup were pretty simple.

Sweet looking bumper. I would also like to see full body pics. Simple design, doesn't weigh to much. Excellent job!

Ok. Here you are. Shot in my driveway. Just needs a spare on the rack and tools in the back and its ready for Moab.

The bumper was custom but the guy is willing to make a bunch more.

Man, that looks great! One of the best looking bumpers ive seen on a kj. Only thing that would look better is to put some round fogs on instead of the little rectangle ones.
