My t case skid plate showed up today, its black but i am gonna scuff it up and paint it bright green like everything else. Its all lazer cut with some very nice welds out of 3/16th steel. Not bad for $80 shipped. Its a little dirty in the pic but it sonly dust. Here is the D 30 riddler diff cover installed. And here is my newly acquired pop up moon roof just like the one i put in my 94 xj a while back both this and the t case skid will hopefully be installed monday weather pending obv. I got all new gaskets for it as well so it will be 100% water tight since it is used. I used to install sun roofs at my old work so this being a manual moon roof will be cake to do. Here are my WJ leather seats i got a while back. One day the interior color will match, i hate gray. And here am i flexing on my house yesterday.

Looks good. How much for the skid? I have been toying with the idea of a pop up like that too.

i know it would be a PITA but they make spray paint for plastic. you just scuff it lightly and paint it and its good..

The skid is gonna be $80 shipped i believe for anyone that i send to this guy. I have installed pop up sunroofs like this before and in my old 94 xj its kinda nerve racking cutting your roof so i reccomend leaving it to pros but if you need info on them i can get it for you. My old work charges $550 installed for a popup.

I would never try to install it myself. I too have been wondering why you haven't just painted the interior. I've had friends do interiors and its come out good.

I have not painted it b/c at my old work we used to use the highest quality paints for plastics and preps and it still is not very durable especially not for an off road vehicle that although i keep my jeep clean it will not with stand a beating.
I may try it on a few pieces to see how it works but i may just buy everything completely brand new through a site called allthingsjeep.com which is a site that sells surplus jeep parts that came directly from the manufacturer and dealerships over stock.
