While not my taste, I find it appalling how forum people ALWAYS bash anything that isnt the status quo. Sure I find his NY/NJ accent as painful (or more painful) then nails on a chalk board, but why are yall hating on somebody's mods because they didnt put moabs/soft 8s and a frankenlift on like everybody else??? I guess hate him cause he is different...

Sometimes I wonder if this site is going down the same toilet other jeep forums have been in for years.... :banghead:

:2cents: It it were different and good, people would be praising it. But it's pretty ridiculous looking. Hence the ridicule.

Honestly, I think the paint idea was cool. Just remove the push bar things and it's fine. (Probably just riveted or superglued on anyway, ten minutes tops, or just hit something.)

Well 'different' that works - i.e. it accomplishes an objective better than the 'status quo' - is rare and appreciated.

'Different' that doesn't work get ridiculed...

and for a Jeep - works/doesn't works - is associated with performance off-road (and for a Liberty - the ability to drive there and back)

and Moab/soft 8's and a Frankenlift - tend to work....

like the few others said, i dont care that it is different. It just looks like it was all built in about 15 minutes from crap in the Advanced Auto Japanese vehicle section. In all honesty, if this thing was slammed on the ground lowrider minitruck style, but was done well i would have said not my taste but its done up nicely. i actually like lowriders, tuner cars, euros, etc...just as long as they are done well. that clearly isnt whats going on with this thing. the guy in the video obviously isnt the person whos vehicle this belongs to. its at some small dealership and the guy is trying to sell it by hyping up all this stuff.

It may look aweful but it's not a POS...after all under the crap, it's still a Jeep.

Fogs on the roof??
Oh and I saw the wiring for the daylighters he ran through the door jam... :ROTFL:

Sad part someone will probably pay thousands extra thinking it's worth the extra.

The reason for the ridicule outside the toothpick brush bars: the Black Ops Edition crap. I'd be embarrassed to ride around it that

I think I'm traumatized. :5SHOTS:
JK, I actually don't care if someone mods it like that. Whatever floats their boat. All in all he didn't really take away that much of its offroad capability, but he didn't really add anything to it either. Except, of course, for the offroad sticker, huge stinger bar, and weird rear push bar thingy, those actually dramatically improve performance. :jester: The backwards KC lights actually use a little known scientific principal known as unlogicalism that actually provides amazing offroad illumination. And it's also well known that a pretty paint job with daily waxing and smooth tires are key to completing the most hard core trails. I, however, thought that the funniest thing was the jeep sticker on the blade of the shovel, like that will last long if used, and the shovel being, "just in case somebody else gets stuck."
Seriously though, I just don't like how he's touting it as a hardcore off road mod. Some young poor sap may get tricked into buying this thing, have all this false confidence, and end up getting stuck in the middle of nowhere, or it may just end up facing the worst fate a Jeep can ever suffer :evil: , perpetual mall crawling :cry: .

EDIT. I wonder how safe that front shackle if actually used as a recovery point.

1) i thought it was a spoof (refur to you tube ninja glock)
2) I thought blacked out was something alot of guys go for
3) I think Painting things is normal for us
4) I liked the flat black hood
5) if you had flat grey rims and wanted to flat black them good for you
6) i saw nothing wrong with the roof rack
5) If you wanna put stickers on your jeep put what you want ( I have a salt life, spy, a zombie apocalipsy, IBEW, and L.O.S.T.) if you dont' like em fine but ill fight you over my union and if you guys wanna be snobs ill gladly throw away the L.O.S.T. I may wanna put a grenade or old school star there
6) if all you need or can afford are what ever tires who cares. i have nexus on my jeep I can afford moabs but why when i drive on the road?
7) the bar? If all that you need is to have lights to see, get girls, spot light wildlife, light up the party or skinny dipping whole then they actually did very well not to mention they drilled no holes
8) I cant actually figure out what the back bar was for :?

I find nothing wrong with the mods that he did to it, except that back thing. I think most of them are funny, I don't even care about the stickers I have an UMBRELLA Corp sticker myself. What I find bad, and the reason why I believe most people are harping on him, is the fact that he's trying to sell what he's done as a great performance enhancement.
