I have so many things I want to do I don't know what to do next! I do have a kenwood 800 watt 2 channel amp, so some subs would be a nice next move. I have a buddy that has 2 12" JBL's in his cherokee and when the bass is turned up it will make your heart skip beats! I believe that JBL is a very good brand. I would kind of like to do the nite-shades on my tails but I don't want any tickets...I have heard some good and bad about them. what do y'all think?

All upgrades on hold till I trade for an 11 or 12 model. Although I might buy a roof basket, should fit the new one too. I would prefer a basket that does not need cross bars.

black muffler mod
2" hitch and hopefully STU Coils already put a set of Yakima croassbars on and it, and those have proven to be useful in so many ways.

2" hitch and good winter floor mats. Then next summer, tint the front windows, get a shorter antenna and a good bike rack. After that... Maybe powdercoat factory wheels gunmetal or charcoal when it's due for new tires? That's a ways out. I'd like to do some sound system upgrades someday, but my wife's car is first in line for that. She's going on 5 years on the stock system, so I can wait a little while. Our bikes pretty much get all the mod money these days. She wants to paint hers plum crazy purple either this winter or next. That'll look pretty awesome.

I'm either buying a new set of flat black rims rims or getting the current ones profesionnaly painted. I found a wheel shop in the area that does the powder coat and bakes them. I have found that it is hard to find an exact match to my current 17's in black that is not glossy and does not look like it belongs on a import. Also a lot of black rims are now putting a bright red stripe around the lip which I don't like.

Winter floor mats for certain. (Especially if we receive as much snow as we did last winter)
When the stock Firestones wear out I'll go with the next size larger in an Outlined White Letter tire. (That would look good against a black Jeep) Thinking about a slight lift. (Just thinking at this point.) Also thinking about tinting the front windows. Perhaps one of those cheesy interior wood grain kits they sell on ebay. Otherwise just routine maintenance and care.
