Sorry I haven't been around much guys. Work has been pretty crazy.
So here is the deal. There are a few things I've been meaning to fix/mod on my beast and I need to catch up on the latest and greatest.

By priority:
#1
There are three bad rock chips in my windshield. Is there a company in the DFW (Texas) area that will come install and tint(50%) my front windshield?
If not, where is a good shop to take it to for a front windshield tint that won't screw up my rain sensing wipers.

#2
My front fogs are all cracked up. Where is the best place to order replacements? I'm going to have them shipped to Daniel for tinting.

3#
Who has those plug and play LED rear fog harnesses? My rear tails are tinted pretty dark and I want those for a little extra light back there.

4#
I want to install a sub in the back. Is there a place where I can get an OEM style box that sits on the side over the wheel-well?

Thanks for the help in advance!
Skye

Vinny your reply is of absolutely NO help at all....

1. Most windshield places are reputable...search by word of mouth or the most commercially popular one. Looking at about $275 for a replacement. They don't repair and tint though. One or the other.....i've never heard of a dual purpose one

2. Can get a pair of NEW fogs for about $50 here:
http://www.moparsupercenter.com/

3. Send a pm <contact info of NSV removed by staff>
4. Never seen an oem style box for the side....but Kicker has the nice 10's that sit flush behind your rear seats. Maybe try searching JL some oem grand Cherokee setup. I have also seen that super slim 13" jl installed inthe rear tray.

Get back in the LOOP foo!!!

Skye I just called and spoke to Angie at this place http://www.autoglasscenters.com/ they are fully insured, BBB certified and she said they do windows daily with the rain sensors. I'd suggest getting the OEM MOPAR windshield but they do have a good warranty from defects and leakage. She said if you call today they can have it done tomorrow and do cover the Burleson area. The jeep would need to be accessable and open.

Thanks a lot Wade, and Paul!
I'll give them a call Wade. I'll have to coordinate with Chuck to have it moved out of the garage. The good thing is it will only cost me $200 with my insurance.

Paul.. What's the price on that hood these days?

I'll sent a PM the Lipzschitswrath.

I'm going to paint the hood anyways, could you cover the blemish with paint, etc?

Yep! It's actually not blemished....but INSIDE the clear there are tiny superficial bubbles....not on the surface at all

That sounds great. After I get everything listed in post #1, I will be talking to you more about that.

I'm sure it's beatuiful, but I want my Jeep to be ALL black. I got the fogs shipped directly to Daniel for tinting. So do you know of a place that could do a good job tinting my windshield once it get's replaced?

I'll be home in a couple weeks I think. I may try to get the jeep down to waco before then. I'll have Daniel get the windshield replaced, tinted, fogs installed, and I'm thinking pretty seriously about tinting a set of LED tails, and putting a light smoke over the headlights. Also, Daniel is going to repair/repaint my front bumper and shave the licence plate bracket holes.

Anything else that's pretty cheap that you can think that I need to do?

Maybe pay you to do a paint correction on her???? $100????
