So I have been working on a budget getting it straight. Since I got it I lifted it 4", covered the seats, new stereo, ignition upgrade, etc.... I have a new drag link on the way(mine is wore out), steering coupling kit, and a few oil seals I have. I plan on some 33 12.50 15's in the future and a tan roll bar cover. Should I go tan with the visors as well? ANy other opinions would be great thanks!!

AFTER:

 
those faded rims are keeping that nice jeep from looking good in my opinion. try a mothers ball with some mothers aluminum polish from the parts store and you can get them back looking brand new and shinny :D

trust me its worth doing not to mention fun haha

and a bikini top if you dont have one

i like your setup
 
Does the mothers ball work when they are dull like mine? I have never used it before.... And im trying to decide on the top. I know I like the traditional beter than the strapless on a cj but tan or black with my set up?
 
yea my dads rims were almost white they were so bad and it just will take longer but you can pick your nose in the reflection now hahaha. ya might want to try a fabric version cause my dads bullet holes started eating the powerball when i put it on the corners

and if it were me i would do a traditional black bikini top. my brother has one on his CJ7 and i love it and looks good
 
yea i think a tan top might be a bit much but a black one will look balanced and good. in not sure. the mothers ball works good you just got to take it easy on the edges of the holes because its like a sponge. i havent tried a fabric one but i imagine it it might be able to take more abuse. just see what you can find.
 
The mechanical it's the first thing that I working. The engine, Transmission , etc, all working in excellent condition. I don't know your specs, so I make a opinions for a performance if you let me know the specs. After the exterior. In my opinion to exterior, new fender flears, no doors, get a bikini for the rain, two fog lights, & depends of your budget, new wheels & 4 off-road tires like super swamper, Mickey Thomson, etc.
Here are a pictures of my cousin Jeep, (Black with the tan interiors for help in your Jeep)

Go with the tan top you'll be fine, not to mention between heat and humidity in MS you'll be glad to have less black. Keep the visors black to help offset or break up the tan. Then you have the option of going with a tan or black roll bar.
