Attacked by mother nature!

[WickedBruce]

Yesterday I took her out and found a nice trail...made it all the way to the top and it was gated. =( Had to turn around and in the process got attacked by a rogue tree and smashed my rear driver tail light and bumper! So now i've ordered a new lens assembly for $140 and thinking about getting a heat gun to fix the bumper. It was a good Earth Day gift!

Get some Altezza tail lights on there.. They look pretty cool.

 

[Jo6pak]

Gotta watch out for those vicious hardwoods. I've got a pretty good bruise on my thigh from being counterattacked by some branches we were clearing on Saturday.

 

[WickedBruce]

I'm not sure which Altezza's you mean. I've seen a couple different variations. I really like the avs tail light covers.

Anyone know why it won't let me attach the pics? It's saying bad request!

Tree ninjas are brutal.

That's the best I got. Sorry it's not a bit better!!!

They're quite a bit brighter than the stock too.

Thats actually pretty cool looking. I was thinking about these and then putting the "guards" over it.

Personally was never a fan of the guards. But I would say if I had to choose what looks better, I'd say the latter.

those are plastic guards. trees will still strike just as bad thought those

 

[WickedBruce]

Here is the damage!

 

[WickedBruce]

Do they make metal ones?

 

[tommudd]

No one makes metal ones and how much for a tail light ?????????????
I'm selling stock ones for 80 a pair

 

[03 JEEP KJ BIG BLUE]

thats what a single one goes for on ebay. darn good deal

 

[tommudd]

I find good deals and pass them on trying to help others save a few bucks, but then some think they have to spend high dollars so :happy175::happy175::happy175:

 

[tjkj2002]

Yeah I'd part with my stock tail lights for $80 for the pair,in a heart beat.

 

[WickedBruce]

They are $140 for a single at advance auto

They are $140 for a single at advance auto

So, it looks like you can get a pair of them from Mudd or tjkj for $60 less than the price of 1 at a-zone ......and have a spare just in case mother nature attacks the other one.......:smokin:

I would probably do about the same...maybe not in a heartbeat though. >.> I'm a junk collector. :shrug:

 

[sota]

taken out 2 of the driver's side tail light housings myself so far. swear they must stick out farther than the passenger side.

Other than tree branches and bramble bushes deciding to scribble their names
and add custom pin striping along the sides of our Rig...
I've had one fallen tree jump out at me and take out the rear passengers door!
And a couple of tree stumps popping up kissing the rocker pannels.

Oh well, it adds character to the heep!
