Hey! Newbie, here, just wanted to get a sense of what accessories or parts are most popular out there for Jeep Wrangler/TJs 2003.
I especially had in mind which versions of products are most accepted and plugged, so for example, I'm thinking bicycle racks, storage rack (hitch rach, top of Jeep), half doors; front grills; bumpers; what do you love and recommend?
It all depends on what YOU want to do.
What do you use your Jeep for?
Castro, I don't want to come off as a smartass, but I don't think you'll find this to be largely an "accessorizing" crowd like some other automotive groups. Most here buy upgrades for their Jeep because they have a specific need, not because the Jeep needs jewelry. That said, get a Quadratec catalog and do your worst. ;) You might do better to ask about a specific need as it arises.

Matt...ur jus mean dewd! lol
For me...I say buy skid plates and rocker protection...learn how to drive your Jeep off road for a year or two then a 4" lift and a set of 33" TrXus MT's :)and ur good to go...at that point you'll learn why you want lockers, better crawl ratio etc... Although one "accesory that is kool and has function if you get to deep water crossings is a snorkel...snorkel do look kool... ;) IMHO ;)

Kate, We have no clue as to what his plan is for his Jeep from the little bit we know.
Hey Bill,
I just removed my "BILL" filter from the onslaught of the troll recently. This is the first post I've seen of yours since I filtered you out a month or so ago. Very nice first post, I must say. ;)

Hey now, chrome looks really cool when covered in mud! I 'like' my Laredo package with the chrome rims, chrome grill and stainless bumpers.

Sweet! Definitely, the Jeep Girl!
If you are going to play off road, a set of tow hooks and a 'tow' or 'snatch' strap with sewn loops and a stretch factor are a must. The tow hooks anchor to the frame and are good for either giving or getting a pull. A strap that stretches makes it easier to not damage things because it doesn't come up hard.
A fire extinguisher is also a good thing to have along with a first aid kit. The fire extinguisher mounts to the roll bar or right beside the driver's seat on the floor.
