Lifelong Jeeper, new to the Commander

[xjhawk1964]

Hi to all.
I have been a Jeep owner most of my life. My last was a heavily modded 2004 Rubicon.
We wanted something to tow our boat and camper...and I wanted that thing to be a Jeep!
I just bought my father in laws 2007 Commander.
It is an Overland Edition, with all the goodies, including Hemi and QDII.
33,000 miles of garage livin and old-guy driving!

I have ordered my SuperLift 4" kit.
I plan to wrap the Jeep in a stainless steel silver texture. New front and rear bumpers, some skidding, fender flares wrapped in carbon fiber vinyl, exhaust and intake.

I appreciate all the advice and information that this site provides.

Glad to have you here man. We tend to go a bit extreme with our modifications here and looks like you'll fit right in. :)

Welcome! Sounds like you have some good plans!
Do you plan on making your own fenders, or wrapping your stock ones with faux carbon fiber? Or where you going to custom make new flares from carbon fiber?

I think I am going to use the 3M carbon fiber vinyl. I have used it in the past on my Audi, and it works really well.
Wish someone made custom front and rear flares.
