I realized I've been posting for a while but I hadn't actually built a thread documenting my build so I guess here goes, you guys have been an amazing help and hope to bring as much to the forum as I get out from it.

My Jeep, the Spartan, is a 2014 Anvil JKU Sport S the has an August Build Date and I received ownership of him on Labor day of all days [emoji3]

First order of the day was to Lift it, with a ProComp 2.5" kit that actually ended up being 3" when the dust settled

Then came the Warn Bumper and Winch

Directly from Mopar, The Dealership I bought the Jeep is owned by a customer of mine (I'm in IT) so I have a pretty good discount on Parts

:thumb: Otherwise I imagine it isn't cheap. That's the only part of the 10AE I would love to have. It's a great looking hood.
 
I went to a local AEV dealer, and asked for price on the AEV Hood, and they said $1,100 unpainted, then went to my favorite Off road store and they told me $1,000 special ordered for me, Went to the Dealer after looking up the Part #s and got a number, after that took it to the VP of sales and he called and told them to give me the Employee pricing, Hood Plus louvers came out to $800 including tax, the rest of the parts they just swapped from the original hood...

Also went to the Mopar Store Directly, they asked for $950 + Tax...
 
The Spartan finally got some new shoes, I admit I did try and get the most out of the OEM tires, but after a slashed sidewall on the last two trips, it was time to take a hit and move to some better MT rubber

Also bought an ARB 48Lt fridge from a Local Shop for those Camping trips, It was the floor model so I was able to get a deep discount on it...

Also had a cable run thrown to the back with a splitter for an aux 12v port in the back and the splitter will also feed an eventual power inverter...
