Modified TJM T-15 is finally on!
Well guys I finally made time to get the TJM modified and put on this weekend and it turned out great. Basically I didn't really care for the large hoops over the lights so I had them cut down and remounted lower. I think it came out well. The lights behind the grill are gonna come out and I haven't quite decided what foglights are going on the bumper itself. Winch will be in as soon as I can afford it. Sorry I only have 2 pics the camera died when we were wheeling, more to come tomorrow hopefully. Let me know what you think.

I like the look of the short hoops, but it looks like it'll interfere with the pattern of the headlights and the especially the floods. It could also cause a good bit of reflective glare back up the hood...
Have you had a chance to flip on the lights at night yet?

The way it's sitting makes it look like it's in front of the lights, but it's really not, just a bad angle. Headlights work great at night no distraction at all. The lights behind the grill will be coming out soon, and I will replace them with some Hella 4000's or IPF's or something to go on the bumper itself.

Damn, nice, nice, whered you have it done at? I like the T15 a lot, but I never cared for the hoops over the lights. Personally, I would have had them removed if possible, and just kept the center one, like a Sahara Bar. I like it a lot though, looks sick.

Thanks for the compliments guys! I had a local welder who I trust cut the hoops and remount them lower. He did an awesome job, then I primed and painted the welds with some satin rattle can and it came out great. The paint matches perfectly and you can barely see any grind marks.
