    Wash and wax always adds about 50hp. Vacuum adds about 15 might as well do that cheap mod. JK looks awesome! I just did mine with mothers reflections, looks.. Ok... Lacks depth, might just be the paint color.

    Do you have a shipping container on your property? I'm looking into doing this and turning it into a detached office space. I have to make it "pretty" though for my wife to allow it...
