I'd say it would look pretty damn good.

I believe a vinyl shop would be your best bet.

Go for the black pillars! I was thinking trying to do it with vinyl a little back but decided not to. Now you have mentioned it again I have looked at it once more and I think I'm also going to try it. Mon wanna help out?????

To be honest with you, I say no. Almost everything out there nowadays has blacked out pillars for that huge window look. I think painted pillars is a rarity, and you should keep em the way they are... ;)

I was going to give it a try, but my jeep is a darker blue and I wasn't sure if it would be that noticeable and worth my time. I ordered Vinyl samples and everything :) You could give it a try and if it doesn't look good peel it off.

Get someone to photoshop it so we can get a good idea.,.,always better to visually see something to make a good decision.

off the bat, no

I've thought about it and I'd do it if the wj had the little seal thing that starts from the end of the 1/4 pannel windo to the driver/passenger side windo like the wk has.

I was going to say no. I think it mainly has to do with the shape of the overall sides of WJ's. It looks like an interesting concept but I think the white with the tint makes the truck very clean.

I saw a Grand Cherokee with that kit once in my life, while driving in Atlantic City next to the Trump Taj Mahal. I was appalled on how ugly it was.

the front bumper's a little extreme and the rear bumper is kinda bland without that tacky thing jetting out.

I like the spoiler though.
