Question Chomping at the Bit ! Delivery in 2 weeks

Snowbirds casuing a delay in closed carrier spots, but would rather be safe enclosed.

Mind is racing about all sorts of things, foremost being some top down crusing here in the low country of SC.

One thing I'm noodling is mods - specifically the Mina exhaust rear muffler delete (not looking for F1 type sound just a better resonation than stock) and also the chrome gauge surrounds and chrome j-gate surround...any experience with these? Thanks!

Chrome rings and surround are great. Got mine from mina as well.
I simply had the center muffler removed and straight pipes done at local shop. Sounds much better, now thinking about loosing another set of mufflers. You know there are 5.

And maybe a wind deflector and antenna over-ride. Together they give you a remarkably quiet ride ... even at highway speeds.

If you're looking forward to top down cruising you can't, simply can't, go without the remote top mod offered by jagwrangler (whitexkr on this forum). Apart from the car itself, brings the biggest smile on my face.
