    Awesome idea for a thread!!


    Took one visit to moab to realize what I needed to do... Bought my VX in Mid April 2008, went to Moab in May, bought the parts shortly after, and finished up in Early June.



    Not as pretty now as it was in the first "After" pics... Now the wheels have seen some "Use"

    Dang - PO did the visible mods so mine looks pretty much like when I got it. Maybe when I remount the Nerf bars & put on new skins I'll be able to contribute.

    It must be the featherduster that keeps it so purdy.
