I wonder if the insurance co will replace all the extra you have done to your Journey. am I seeing L.E.D halo lights on your journey or is that custom work on those head lights? if so man that will suck cause your have to redo all that ! Anyways at least everyone was ok and that def is good !

Don't get comfortable using those back up camera's . Nothing can replace using mirrors, your own eyes and turning your head . I have driven a school bus for 21 years and without a doubt mirrors and using your own eyes will never let you down ...

Technically an SUV is a true body on frame vehicle. Yukon, Expedition, etc. back when they made them using the truck frame. A CUV is a unibody. But it seems no one worries to much about acronyms anymore. The Ford Explorer used to be a true SUV when it was made on the Ranger frame. Now it's unibody. But people still call it an SUV. Same with the Durango which used to be on a Dakota frame.

I cried when I seen all my work all smashed up. So many hours and countless days spent under the hood in blizzards working hahah. I'll know more tomorrow I think they can fix it tho. I hope

I was thinking the same thing today watching all those suvs cuv etc go bye how so many are kinda blurred in size and looks but if I was to say the closet competitor for the journey is, I think the Dodge Journey is right in line with the Hyundai Santa Fe as far as size, how many people it carry and height ! I look at both but went with the journey because it had the higher rebate " I am a rebate shopper " and I like hoffman dodge vs massey Hyundai , Hoffman is just the better dealer for my needs

Mine calls it an SXT - apparently that's what the VIN codes as, so I sent them the window sticker and the bill of sale, since I have replacement cost insurance and they can be really difficult in the event of a claim - I had a total loss of a van about 12 years ago and they fought me on the model, trying to low ball the replacement vehicle, since they have the option of replacing the vehicle with a new one of the same model.

I won in the end, but have found that it is easier to put the paper in place before there are any questions, in case they try the 'we thought it was the base model' excuse in the event of a problem.

State Farm calls mine a sport wagon too

I have state farm and they have my journey listed as a Sport Wagon on my insurance policy . I kinda thought that was interesting . What does your insurance co' have your journey's listed as on your policy

I like the black cross bars... I would paint the chrome to match the paint.

Now I think what can I do with that grill now that I know how to pull that bad boy out. Oh man my mind is in over gear ! Maybe I will spray paint the black inside part of the chrome grill that is black a chrome color or buy some paint that matches my paint and paint it then clear coat it.. I think the black plastic look inside the chrome is cheap. It needs to either be painted or chromed. I think black paint with clear coat would look nice.

I need to install the bottom grill with the allen bots it came with. I try to use 3m tape but it didnt hold up too well and I cant figure out how to get to the bottom grill from under the bottom of the car. I did search but I only find topic on it. I understand how to remove it from the top part but I cant get it to come out from the bottom. I guess I should had ask, do I pull out toward the street or pull up and how much force will it take or is there something on the bottom I need to undo before I try to pull the grill out.
I want to pull the top grill out so i can install the lower grill cause it looks like if i get the top grill out completely then I can stick my arm in behind the front bumper and bolt in the bottom grill

that is to black out chrome. I am not sure that would work on silver ally wheels .. If you do use it, post pics !

I want to remove the front chrome grill on my DJ , My Question is. after I remove the tabs, Do I just pull the grill straight toward me or up wards and then out toward me, I try this last weekend and it look like the bottom of the grill is attached to the bumper still. So do I pull on the honey comb grill toward or leave it alone?

Nice truck, but I'll keep my black grill. The interior trim color of the Crossroad is called Liquid Graphite. It changes color as the light hits it.

Thinking this would look good on several pieces, not just the wheels. This is similar to what the Crossroad interior has on the dash trim... Hmmm....wheels spinning...

It was aftermarket tail lamps by spyder and they def were road legal cause i got pulled over in my truck 2 times and one cop said nice tail lamps but i owe you a apology . I just look at a pic of my truck and it did have 3 small red spots inside the light but the lenses was clear !

IDK , I think it would look good , check out this ram with copperhead pearl paint with a stainless steel/ chrome grill

Thank you I could see silver with this if you spray the stainless steel with black chrome paint like this
. that color shadow black out chrome on the grills would look wicked with the silver paint IMO !!!!!!

Damn that looks sharp ! It looked great before the bottom grill cover was installed. I think in this case a darker colour DJ is best ? Can't see my silver popping like your black does.

yea i was thinking a hair dryer would work

20% on the back looks good. I wouldn't cover my b/u lens because mine do not give off enough light. I need a brighter bulb, but have no idea what I need. My Crossroad lamps are painted black inside: good enough for me. Good post, though. Probably would require a hair dryer or heat gun to install.

haha I am sure !
