I think we are all going to find out after you do an install.
I'd love a nice TSX or FX-R style projector in a good looking 7" round housing that looks factory, but unfortunately they just don't exist

No, it's a projector The Retrofit Source sells. It's widely considered to have the best cutoff pattern of any projector lights in existence.
This forum has a way of doing that

I was thinking, “I guess it’s possible that the FXR headlight would fit in a TJ.” I learned something today.
Why not one of the Trucklite knockoffs? I bought a set through amazon and have been extremely happy with them. I had trucklites previously and see no difference in clarity, cutoff etc. Not to mention, look really nice.
If you’re interested, I’m willing to part with all 5 of my 2006 Moabs so you have a full matching set - open offer.
Hey Chris, I just read your review of the Currie lift kit and saw this thread. I just bought the exact same TJR. I'm curious why you wouldn't plan to put one on this Jeep?
(EDIT) Saw the comment about wanting something to just buzz around and getting a purpose buggy later.

Machined or silver?
Never say never
Honestly, I'm trying to keep the build focused around a 265 tire. I'm just not sure I need 285s (33s) for my intended use for the Jeep. I mean I like the look, I just don't know if I need it this time around.
Being my third TJ build, I've learned a lot from the last two
I'll be following for tips and tricks. I owned a 2000 TJ from 2000-03 but this is my first real build. I'm researching now. First step is getting the frame rust proofed at a local shop here in PA. Then I'll wheel it a bit to see how far I want to go. Initially thinking 3-4" lift and 33s.

I don't have all of the details yet. They use Eastwood frame paint, inside and out. It's a Fab shop that specializes in Jeeps near me. They came with numerous recommendations. I'm going down to get an idea of the process and cost. I lucked out in finding a TJ in the Northeast that isn't all rusted.
Well, potentially good news. I got a shipment notice from Savvy today for the bumper and taillights. Of course who knows if they'll ship it (or if they just printed the label) anytime soon, but at least it's progress.
That was a risky move ordering stuff from savvy with the move coming up soon. Did you order F/R bumpers?
I can always swing by his house and pick it up for him
Now that I think about it once you move to AZ you're paying sales tax again. Do they collect there for all orders or is it like CA where the company needs a physical address in the state?
Naaa, I had it sent to my mom's house in Portland, that way if it came while I was gone, she could just send it to me.
I ordered the complete front bumper and the taillights. I should have ordered the rear, which I regret not doing. I'll order that along with the modular under armor for the tuck.
