Fixed my front air dam today. It was like this before I bought it and didn't catch it
Maybe I'll find another one in a junk yard or see how much a new one is to replace it...
Had a $5 Oriellys coupon so I bought a new 14" antenna. With the coupon it was $10 so I thought why not and now the antenna won't hit the low beams in parking garages! I drove around and the reception was actually better to me than the old tall one!

Be careful, this is EXACTLY why I KEEP my long antenna. I get modifying things to make them your own, but I leave my long OE antenna to be a warning "feeler" for parking garages. I haven't measured, but id be surprised if its any taller than a couple inches above the roof of the truck (keep in mind you also have your GPS antenna up there). Its come in handy more than once for me. Drive up to the "vehicle cant be taller than this bar" and see if she hits it. If it does, that parking garage is a no-go. Maybe I have an ingrained fear from absolutely demolishing a roof top tent in a parking garage on that rental Jeep.....but to each their own!
Otherwise, super clean truck and really well done! I enjoy reading this type of simple builds. Blue jeans is such a good color. I attempted to get into a second hand blue jeans 2016 Platinum last year, only for the dealer to sell it in the two hours it took to get up there. Le sigh.
Just did the "intake silencer mod" and it's okay. Don't think I hear it nearly as much as some would have you believe. If I don't notice much of a difference in the next day or so I'll just put it back in. Also cleaned 2 of the 3 MAF/MAP sensors...
