I cut the Front Fenders and removed the inner bracket to help with approach
angles and just because it looks better since I don't have fender flares.

I tinted the Rear windows.. Basically all the glass
that is non-moving in the rear of the XJ. I removed all the glass from the vehicle while I was doing my painting project
and figured "What they Hell, Why Not??!!!!
Finally, I stripped the XJ down, sanded it, did some minor rust repairs
and repainted it inside and out. I removed everything, roof rack, fenders, head panel and rear liftgate, removed
the interior headliner (to remount roof rack) all trim cleaned, wires re-routed and seats removed for bedlining the floor-boards.
The Paint job is a "rattle-can" job. The black is duplicolor's Bedliner in a can, required about 8 cans (recoated previous
paintjob) and I used Krylon Camo-Tan. I used about 10-12 cans of that, but covered the roof, and all body panels in
about 3-4 coats. When the paint was finished I used rubbing compound to finish it off and seal the paint. Since
the Jeep will be getting trail striping, there is no need for a quality showroom finish.
