    I've got some new build motivation! Going to add black window visors, switch door handles and maybe mirrors as well for black, and change to MB 352 17" wheels. Black rock sliders will come last. I think it looks sick!

    2/1/16: Built a thin lip Satoshi style grill. I carefully used a dremel tool to cut the plastic and it came out perfectly. The mesh is firmly secured using zip ties and zip tie mounts that I epoxied to the inside plastic of the grill. I drilled a few holes in the plastic and ran zip ties through to secure the mesh on the sides of the grill. Now I just have to decide which emblem to use on the front.

    Switched out my Thule roof rack for the OEM.

    Removed the Leer shell and added a low profile black UWS tool box

    Switched out the white door handles for black.

    It was mostly looks. I think the OEM rack looks way cleaner. I also like the option to fold them in and have no noise or resistance. Even with the Thule wind fairing, it was noisy.
