are the silver front and rear bumpers a factory option or an aftermarket thing cos in the uk we dont get the option if it is a factory thing they only come on the compass and i like the look

I think they come as part of the limited package in the US.

Yep--these are a few of the trim items that appear on the US Limited model. Shiny <I have to use the word, chrome...> roof rails, bumbers, side moulding. I think you can see all these features if you go to jeep.com and "build your Jeep". Try using a zip code of 93221--that'll get you one with the California requirements!

I think a little chrome looks good on a car--of course, then I AM A CHILD of the 50's! We either had lots of chrome, or we "leaded in" all the holes where chrome trim was removed--hood ornaments, fender welts, side mounlings, trunk badging and handles. Something in my coffee this am has me very reminiscence of the past!

Oh, well, back to the M38's transmission...
