Looking really good - I like how you're making the KJ your own. That's what I like about the Liberty - lots of ways to make them unique.
Well done!

what paint did you use and how has it been holding up?

PlastiDip. Surprisingly it's held up through the winter snow/salt without peeling or anything so far.
I can't say the same for the grille though. It's already started peeling.

Looks great.
1)Can you enlighten me to how you went about painting them or rather plastidiping then? Did you use plastidip on the center cap as well?
2) Also how did you go about trimming the bumper?
Thank you and looks awesome again.

Painting I just removed all 5 wheels from the Jeep, taped it off so it wouldn't get paint on the tires. I did 4 coats in each wheel. Center caps I popped off before painting anything. Painted those with red PlastiDip. At first it didn't look like it would be dark enough and you could see the silver through. As it dried it darkened though.
Cutting I just used thin painters tape to draw off a line. From there I used a Dremel with cutting tool for the thicker hard plastic. Most if it I used an exacto razor knife though.
