Now that all the vynil is done (YESSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) i really dont know where to go from here. ive ruled out a lift kit and new tires because mine dosent get hung up on obstacles and the goodyears are completely fine with me. i was going to get RL's gecko roof basket, like tjkj2002 has, but after that im not sure what else to do, any suggestions? |

Well since your in Colorado I guess it would look silly to have a custom surf board rack on the KJ. But let me ask you. Since you live in Colorado. What did you want this Wave Edition to represent when people looked at it? Or what did you want it to say to you when you got in your rig? Just saying. Cause to bring a beach setting(if thats your defintion of WAVE EDITION) into a KJ in Colorado is gonna be kinda wierd. |

Check these guys out. They have a couple companies they work with where I live. They probably have someone near you, or you may be able to do it yourself. I've been wanting to customize the interior since about a year after I've had mine. Still looks almost new though. May just do it anyway. http://katzkin.com |

I dont think you are really done with the exterior...I would continue it on towards the front like a wave coming in and flattening out just before it hits the beach ending at the front fender with palm trees right behind the front tire, throw a couple of fins in there ( Fins to the Left and Fins to the Right  ) and then you would have the Wave Edition . Inside take out the carpet, sand on the floors

)(and you're the only Jeep in town...) IMO the vinyl looks a little incomplete. there should be some orange "wave" vinyl applied in front of and/or among the blue...and I like the orange/blue door panel and seat idea. |

Ever thought of doing some pin stripping on the blue? Maybe do some White pin stripping to make it look like a wave. Or have someone air brush some definition to break all the blue up. |

im actually trying to track a part number for the interior roof liner skin so i can get a new one. as far as exterior im going to come back to the exterior winter of 08, for now i want to focus attention on the interior |

you should use photoshop and try mutiple front end designs. maybe try making the grille blue and bring the color up on the hood. idk. but definitly use some sort of photo shop and play with ideas. much easier to visualize. and for sure the seats and interior are good ideas. well good luck with what ever you do. |

Just saying. Cause to bring a beach setting(if thats your defintion of WAVE EDITION) into a KJ in Colorado is gonna be kinda wierd. im not FROM colorado im only stationed here. im from baltimore maryland, only a hop jump and a skip away from ocean city, virginia beach isnt to far either, and give me 9 hours and i can be on myrtle beach SC. so to me it didnt seem appropriate to do a mountain theme since next year ill be back on the east coast, surfing
