    So how long did the results last from the magic eraser??

    OscarMike/Howard Hughes Liberty Concept

    Seat belt buckle holder/button. I made a new custom seat belt holder button today - Picture below. It wasn't something I originally intended to do, until the factory plastic one broke and fell off one day, and the dealership wanted a crazy price for a new one. So I made something nicer and...

    Thanks Kevin. :-). Just be careful, it can be a trap - once you start you might not be able to stop. Two years from now you may be where I am, looking at no end in sight and wondering why did I start this project. Lol

    Jeep liberty roof rails

    I'm not sure what color your kj is, but I have noticed that silver rails look better on the kj's of color like blue, red, etc. But if you already have a silver jeep like I do, than silver rails just get lost, and a darker shade like graphite or gun metal looks better and stands out more. And...

    That's as good an explanation as any. Lol. Thanks. :-)

    Thanks guys. :-). I'd post more pics but I have to be a little conservative at this point or I'll reach the limit for pics before I finish the jeep. Lol. And there's still a lot yet coming.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Bumper trim fins Finished shaping one of my custom bumper trim fins out of diamond plate. It's gonna be a nice addition to my "Oscar Mike" concept. :-). Photos on my project thread.

    Bumper trim fins Part of what inspired me to start this project is that the design of the Liberty looks a little unfinished. Almost like the design team was pulled off the job before putting the finishing touches on. One example of this is on my 06 bumper - it has these fin shaped flat areas...

    Jeep liberty roof rails

    I have the same jeep and I also had to refinish my rails after the original paint was flaking off. They are a single painted/powder coated steel tube. But you can remove them to re-paint yourself or have them done. First remove the two small torx screws at either end of the rail - they are...

    Parking lot

    I mostly take pics of mine next to wranglers and other libertys - with libertys to see how different they look. And with wranglers too see how similar. Lol. A little perspective never hurts. ;-)

    Parking lot

    Sometimes I can't resist taking comparison pics in the parking lots. Here's one taken a while ago. Mine is the "Oscar Mike" concept on the right.

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    I finished tweeking my custom roof rack crossbars. And used tracing paper to trace certain areas of the stock bumper to make patterns for some custom trim pieces.

    OscarMike/Howard Hughes Liberty Concept

    Thanks Jim. :-). All plastic parts that were cut or reshaped were sanded smooth to look like they were originally made that way. All metal welds are hidden inside the plastic end caps. And the small metal parts I made from scratch were powder coated to match the factory parts.

    Thanks Bert. I'll have to take a current pic. Although shortly after taking it the photo will be out dated again. Lol. Things are evolving quickly right now.

    Custom Crossbars Here are my custom roof rack crossbars made mostly from modified Nissan Frontier and Xterra parts. I always loved the look of the roof rack on the xterra. And now the top of my Renegade has a very similar look. I already had the Mopar crossbars for carrying my kayak, but...

    OscarMike/Howard Hughes Liberty Concept

    I was pricing some tires today at Firestone, and the manager who was helping me kept calling my kj a wrangler. When I tried to correct him he didn't believe it was a liberty until he walked outside to take a closer look. Lol. It's not the first time someone has mistaken it for a wrangler, and...

    Thanks! I've got more coming very soon. Including the FINALLY finished roof rack crossbars, and some bumper trim pieces that are gonna be sweet.

    Pillar covers In this pic you can see the black acrylic pillar covers I added between the side windows. On a silver liberty with dark windows of similar size and shape I think it really helps break up the repetitive pillar/window/pillar/window/pillar/window/pillar design of the side profile...

    Door pull trim After searching for months and months I finally found a recessed door pull the right size to use around the armrest pull holes. It only required a small amount of modification to fit perfectly. I think it really helps give the interior an updated and more high end look.
