Here are some pics of my buddy Scott's 05 GC Limited. This was my prom ride for this year (last prom ever!).
This thing is great, I love driving it around. It has 20" wheels, a Flowmaster 50-series muffler (which sounds really good), and an AEM intake.
I know some of you are wondering why the chrome grille is missing from the front... well, it's off getting painted, along with an SRT-8 body kit
It was supposed to be painted and installed before I took it for prom, but that was delayed, so I rocked it kit-less. He's also getting a factory navigation receiver, clear tails, and some other little things. Trust me, there will be pictures when the kit's installed. It's gonna look so good
These things are sweet. I almost bought a black one. They were going to rock a sweet deal on it. My bank already had me financed at an unbelievable interest rate for my age, but my wife didn't like it for some reason. All she wants to look at are 40k+ Expeditions and Mercedes. Sheesh how much money does she think I make.

Clear tails?? Nooooo!! of course, just my opinion.
yea, no clear tails on that, itll look funny
the wife is going to be drooling when she sees this. she wants to trade her cherokee in for a newer one.
hmm thats wheels look famalair oh yeah they are the chrome versions of the ones i have on my colorado
As much as i hate to see a jeep not made to go off road, im very happy to finally see a jeep that looks good with chrome rims and lowered.
As long as he doesnt put SRT badges on it, id say that body kit is going to look sweet.
clear tails - here's a photoshop I did with clear tails, SRT sideskirts, painted door pillars (also getting done soon), and smoked-out 3rd light... have a look for yourself:
He said that he was thinking of getting a set, but wasn't sure what they'd look like. After I showed him this pic, he knew he had to have them. Personally, I think they're great. It looks kinda like a new Lexus RX.
It's actually not lowered yet, but he's either getting Eibach springs (when they come out) or SRT springs. Both are about 1.5" lower.
And the badge - it will have an SRT badge on it eventually, but with a twist:
and that's really all I can say about that for now
ooooh, the new Grand Cherokees are so sweet looking. We saw a SRT8 version at the dealership the other day and was drooling over it.
His looks good so far, I definitely want to see it when he gets everything back from the shop.
Have a good one,
Justin
Man that does look sick!
Love it!

I really like how it looks with the door sills painted black. Still like the stock tails though
UPDATE!
Only one pic, but you get the idea:
He's still waiting on the rear bumper to get shipped, but it's 75% complete right now
Looks REALLY good!
I think the stock SRT wheels are a little nicer though, why did he only go 20s?
Id say smoked tails would look a lot better then clears as well, but its his choice

To me ... those 20s almost look too small. On an expensive car like that ... you have to go atleast 24s. Gotta keep it street!

What's going to make it an SRT killer? Those SRT Cherokees are faster than my Goat, so he better have something up his sleeve.

Sold 2/2/05
The 20's only cost $1300 for the complete set with tires... that's why he went with 20's instead of 22's. 22's would've been twice as much. Either way, the new wheels look so much better than the stock 17's
SRT killer?
cough, cough
how many kinda SRT-8's are there? i know of the SRT-8 Crossfire,300M and now Jeep Grand Cherokee
First off i like it..and thats coming from someone who hates street jeeps. It just looks really good.
However i wouldnt worry about it being a SRT8 Killer anytime soon. Even with the supercahrger....your not gunna slap one on and lay it to the SRT's all day. But tell your freind good luck with the build,and we all wanna see it as soon as its done..
SRT-8 Killer also sounds weird, why wouldn't you say Porsche Cayenne Turbo Killer, or something like that. In other words why pick on a car in the same family.
bah the enemy a SRT... Ill stick with my TB SS(see sig) I will admit though the SRT is a sharp Jeep, just couldnt see paying 10 thousand dollars more on a jeep when the Trailblazer SS is only 20 horsepower less, but then again, i just got my TBSS tuned and its up to 440 HP now!!!!!
Let see some engine pics when its an srt killer....
