I love it! I seen a pic of your jeep on GR8Tops website, I'm looking to get one myself. Is the tonnue cover a custom job? If so, what did it run you if you don't mind? I also need a place to put downed game besides the hood, it just gets too warm up front but I get a lot of head turns when there is a deer up there.

Swap will be in a couple of months, Just waiting to collect the cash to finish buying rest of parts needed. I.e. Riadator, Wiring harness, ect.. Have a local Mechanic who has done about 12 of these, however mine is the newest jeep. So we have 2 computers to contind with. I will keep posted on progress.
