Funny thing is that it didn't really hurt.. I think the black is the melted glove stuck to my skin.. Can't get it off though.. Could just be burnt flesh..

Well just wanted to give everyone an update. I ended up finishing up the driver side D-ring mount late last night. The temperature dropped quick so it took forever for the paint to dry.. so here's a brief list of all the things i managed to get accomplished yesterday.
-trimmed Bushwacker Rear Corner guards to fit Trektop
-Installed Trektop NX
-Cut and painted rear frame rails
-Installed EVO rear D-ring mounts
-cut off shock boots
-Put doors back on (just in time for the rain)
-oh, and i managed to cut myself with a box cutter and burn myself pretty good.

Just ordered HD battery terminals and another set of D-rings.
Next is going to be a stinger or brawler bar. Still haven't decided if I want to go the expensive route and buy the EVO Stinger and EVO fairlead light mount or If i want to go with the Pure Jeep "stinger" which comes with light mount tabs... It'll be $395 to go the EVO route or just $140 to do the PureJeep..

I was figuring the price for an already powdercoated one from Northridge and adding the price of the light mount. I guess I could save money by painting it myself..

It's cheaper and already powder coated if you buy through evo. $250 is coated.

only thing is shipping tho

It would probably be the same in the end. I would rather buy right from the company and give them the money instead of a supplier. How do you think they get away with free shipping?

If it were me I would get coated.. but that's just because I'm OCD and would want all the black to match..
