I have done all kinds of mods to mine and am looking for new ideas. I am not looking for "I scored this crazy deal on CL or from a buddy for $37.395 fifty!" I am looking for what your favorite modifications are that total cost you less than $100.

So far mine are:
1. my hella headlights. 80w low and 100w high beam off road only head lights that i had to rewire to take advantage of. $20

2. my rear mag light holders and 2d led mag lights. these make sure i have flash lights when and where i need them and the flash lights are bright and the batteries last forever. $43

3. led reverse lights. these suckers are BRIGHT! there are crazy easy to install and the price it right at $24 after shipping

1. My front bumper

Going out with the jks and tjs and showing them the kj can hang with the best......

Priceless

$18 for a drilled threaded cue ball on ebay, to make a new shift knob. It's fun to drive again and looks pretty cool too.

And a $60 alignment!
