I don't know about you but the "Cute Jeep" label is wearing thin on me. Do I cave in and get a personalized plate- QUTEKJ or De-Cute it somehow?

What mods have you done that De-Cuted your KJ?

Lift, after market rims, Mud terrains, Roof basket, would do an exhaust but have heard it isn't good if you fordge water...I don't plan to do that anytime soon, but should I ever get to certain wheelin situations to where i would, I wouldn't want to worry about anything getting ruined on the aftermarket system...

and that is what I have done to "De-Cute" the KJ

That and lots of stickers....stickers really help...

ARB or Rock Lizard front bumper, driving lights, rims and tires, lift.... lots and lots of money. Want free stuff......MUD, that will de-cute anything.

Thats a major change with little results. I am sure that will change with some off road goodies.
BTW I think that color rocks and wonder what a KJ would like like that color.

I've added a brush guard and BFGs so far. Rockrails, skids, a roofrack, and Hellas are next, I think they all make it less cute and should at least get me acknowledged by the Wranglers. Plus, I'm planning on getting a moderate supply of window decals. In the end, I realized that some will always have a negative view of the Liberty, so as long as I like it, thats all that matters. If some guy in a lifted F350 thinks KJs are chick vehicles, its his problem that his tastes are determined by society, not mine.

*EDIT: Oh, excessive quantities of mud definitely helps. Unbelievable amount of attention (some by rather attractive girls 8) ).
