Hey guys. So I just finished up the conversion (1st on JG?) along with a few other upgrades over my spring break so I figured I'd post up some pics to show it off. My camera broke my first day home so I had to use the cell for pics.


Before:



After:
Here's the new front, all blacked out, debadged, and with black Gen. III projectors.














I also added some 6K fogs to match my lows, but I didn't get any pics with the lights on while I was home. However, I do have some comparison shots of the 5K reverse lights I also installed.






So what do you guys think?

Looks Sweet ..Is the Grill the same or did u have to get a 04 one aswell?
Had to get a new grille as well, BIG thanks to Atilla on that one! He gave it to me.:thumbsup:

That looks excellent, you are now one of two WJ's with a blacked out front end :thumbsup:

Edit: I just noticed we have the same exact fuzzy dice :eek: Looks awesome man :D
Great minds think alike.

AHH SHIIOOTT** i was going to do up my old black overland WJ with that grille i gave you. nicely done bro, like the debadged look and projector lights i must say looks beautiful on your WJ bro!

the wheels stand out nicely with the red too, tints looks proper as well.

i like the new look, big difference. especially if its black for me:thumbsup:

black jeeps for the win!


EDIT- the pinstripe on WJ makes the profile soo much better!!!!

looks great!!! The Gen III's are a must have!

Thanks Scott. Unfortunately the Ins. Co decided that there was no diminished value so I won't be getting those black reps anytime soon. :(

Now is it just me or in the picture does your new projector on the right side not look as snug as it should be?

That's just a shadow, they sit just fine.

dont let them bully ou into No diminished value. Unless your truck had been damaged before or something...then an accident of that magnatude is grounds for diminished value. Regardless of what they tell you...if you tried to sell your vehicle...and someone runs a carfax and sees it was in an accident...thye will not buy it or offer less for it. take it to a dealer and yo will see what I mean. Call them and tell them you want to file a diminished value claim and be ADAMENT!
Unfortunately, I did that, I took it to two local dealers, including the one where I bought it, and they both said that they didn't care about the damage and wouldn't back me up. They gave me the same BS as the Ins. that it was too old with too many miles. I completely disagree with all of them but the adjuster claims that without proof, he can't do anything.

Damn Chuck that is rough! You cant make up for the bend by adjusting the level? Or is it really bent???
 
#26 ·
Its literally bent in the middle, it affects it a bit but I think I can work around it for now (I did for nearly a year).

Oh question for everyone who has the projectors, is it normal for you guys to have what looks like fuzz on the inside when the lights are on?

Oops my fault man I forgot you mentioned that. :thumbsup:

No worries man, but I'm glad to help anybody who's thinkin about doin this upgrade. It reallly is totally worth it, the '04 front end is soooooo much more apealing than the 99-00 style.

Thanks man.

Do you mean that my 2000 now looks like your 2004, or that you also have the conversion and it looks similar?
