I painted the grille Flame Red because that's the color of the only Jeep I have that I can install it on - my LJ has the CJ Grille Kit on it and my other Jeep is a JKU, so if I'm going to put it on something it has to be the truck:Have you decided if you are going to try it out on your truck?
I haven't decided if I'll do the highline version of either the flat or CJ-style fenders or if I'll do the MB-style grille but if I decide to go ahead with those projects I'll start threads on them.I love it with the highline fenders! I would definitely be interested! How about MB style with highline fenders? Those would go together like a fat kid and a candy store!
Mine too. But J did a much better job than I did.My tj has turn signals in the grille?
I'm confused apparently. Mine look factory. I think I'm missing something. Did early tjs have them in the grille then they get removed?Mine too. But J did a much better job than I did.

So the bigger amber light under your headlight is not factory? Because I have them too. I probably sound so dumb right now lolAll TJs came from the factory with turn signals in the front fenders and side markers in the flares. Many of us, when we switch to non factory fenders, will move our signals and markers to the grill.

Wow and here I am thinking they changed the grill in the later years or something no wonder "TJ turnsignal lens" turned almost no results on ebayYou're ok. Someone put CJ-era signals on yours when you weren't looking.
And believe it or not, those headlights next to you windshield are not factory either.So the bigger amber light under your headlight is not factory? Because I have them too. I probably sound so dumb right now lol

I have to say, the cj markers look like they belong there, maybe due to my dad having a cj7 throughout my child hood so i honestly never thought much of it untill I discovered this thread. Now I will argue to my death that my windshield lights come standard on tj'sAnd believe it or not, those headlights next to you windshield are not factory either.
I posted this concept image early in the project, it illustrates the difference - factory grille at left, the new grille at right.Maybe I just have extremely terrible observation skills but I don't see really any difference between any of those pics with the exception of the yellow turn signals. And that wouldn't require a build of any sort. A hole saw and a few minutes and you'd be done. What am I missing?
