Check out the grill(s)... is it me or do I see something other than black plastic?

... and yes, those wheels have to go!

Chrome mesh grill?

They did an OUTSTNADING job with that, if you ask me. The color matching rocks-- even the mirrors!. The grills look great, and I actually really like those wheels on there.

Ya the lip on that rear wheel is nice! SSRT on the side as well as Supercharged....very nicely done!

chrome grille is great and gotta love polished parts under the hood..i would love to know the sizes, offsets, etc on those wheels though... they gotta be cheaper than the SRT wheels for winter

this truck certainly looks badass. i like the colormatching as well

Great looking truck and good job excepttttttt you guessed it,
Those wheels.
The stock rims look so much better.

Stock simply wouldn't fly at SEMA.

Looks like they color matched all the chrome except the piece under the window which is now flat black.

I love everything about it. The grill is nasty, great colormatching, and I like those rims. Gives it some euro flair!!

the question i have is... what is this SRT8 doing at the Vortech booth? do they have a supercharger system coming soon?

"the Supercharger kit for the Jeep SRT-8 is a complete kit... Features:... Paxton Novi1500 head unit"

so i wonder if perhaps Vortech is R&D'ing a supercharger kit themselves for the JGC SRT8.

paint color??

My point is that those rims are very popular on ricer cars. Not really a muscular rim choice.

Ive gone through 1000's of SEMA pics and I cant find anymore of this Jeep! A buddy of mine is there and Im gonna see if can get some more pics of it.

The booth was for both Vortech and Paxton. I beleive they are owned by the same company now and GSM gets there head unit from Paxton.

I bet it was trailered there and back, lol.

GSM Jeep...Kinda plain so I didn't get anymore pics. The front grill inserts looked really cheap to me in person, so I didn't even bother with pics.

Did they lower the jeep or those just bigger tires and rims?

El Calor

It looked to me like they had lowered it. Probably just cut the springs for the show.

El Jefe
11-07-2006, 03:35 PM
aftermarket headlights on the DUB Jeep? it looks like a toy being that lowered. Is the rear on the GSM Jeep the same as stock besides the supercharged logo?

ge2
11-07-2006, 04:00 PM
They aren't aftermarket headlights. They just put red (not sure if it's vinyl or paint) over he bottom and sides of the lamps.

And the rear of the GSM one? It's 1) color matched, including the chrome, 2) non-stock exhaust, 3) smoked 3rd brake light, and 4) WAY overbadged.

El Jefe
11-07-2006, 04:18 PM
The headlights look crystal clear

I contacted GSM and they said that the replacement grill is an actual chrome replacement and that they will have it for resale very soon.

I just ordered a chrome grill kit from http://www.customcargrills.com/. I got the diamond XXL chrome grill kit. Comes in a 12 x 48 sheet. I got the clip kit and there goop adhesive for the install. My Jeep is going to the body shop for a replacement nose (hit a 18 wheeler tire on the highway) I figured while its there lets replace the grills.

I should have some pics next week. I'll post them. My plan was to replace the top black grill, the bottom black grill and also to screen in the vents next to the fogg lights.

Check out the web site..... www.customcargrills.com

Dont think so. I bet they had some shop just put something together so they could have the Jeep ready for the SEMA show. Might even be made out of chicken wire lol
