I picked my 02 Apex edition TJ back in July and have been loving every minute of driving it. It's current look is far from where it started, but it's still not where I envision it being once I'm finished.

Welcome to this great site! I have a 97 Sahara and only have it since May and am overwhelmed by all you can do to these machines.

I think the only people who love my Jeep more than I do are my two sons. They love riding in the back in the summer when we have the doors and hard top off. The memories that I'm building with these two little guys are going to last a life time.

Ha! That is funny because my Son and daughter, 12 and 14, are both in love with my Jeep as me, almost. My wife loves it too. And yes, the memory building thing is right up front. For yourself, me and a lot of us here. I cherish every time we head out especially into the woods knowing at their ages they will always remember the adventures.

Those aren't covers, those are the stock seats. The Apex edition had a different trim set up apparently. I've found this write up on it.

Your rear seat has headrests? Are those bucket seats in the back?

The first picture is the before shot. In the 6 months I've had it the door latches, bottom door hinges, top door hinge, rear glass hinges were replaced. Spider Trax spacers, 17" powder coated wheels from a JK, both bumpers, added the side steps, black locking lug nuts, led 3rd brake lights in the spare, tail light guards, and black headlight bezels have been added.

The seats are supposed to be water resistant as well, from what I was told.
