Default Jeep Wrangler 4dr NewBright/ Knight Customs parts...

Anyone know what parts from Knight Customs will fit on the New Bright Jeep Wrangler 4dr body? I know he makes parts for the Axial body.. but will those parts fit the hardbody by New Bright?

TIA

The hood piece. The front inner fenders with some trimming. That is about it.

I mounted the knight customs front grill to a new bright yesterday. It could be been done almost perfect but I basically cut the bottom half of the existing grill to have the KC one sit flush. It could be done much better and that's the plan for the extra New Bright I have. I have alot of his 3d parts I haven't tried yet. Any specific ones you are wondering about?

I have a question: what is the best waybto paint these bodies? I scuffed it and used a paint primer mix that's supposed to be really good on plastics then I covered with another coat of PS paint. I did white on top of yellow and yesterday I beat on it pretty good and some rollovers caused a lil yellow to show. I'm going to ask in painting section as well

Hi guys, my bad if you reached out previously and didn't get a reply from me.

A few builders have used our parts in the New Bright 4dr JK. Yes the grills fit, as do the snorkels and window mounts. The Smittybilt fenders can be fitted with some mods. I'll post up some pictures of customer that used our parts on their build. But if you check the Axial 4dr JK section of our store you see all the parts we do for the JK.

Hwheeler73 did this sweet Full Metal Jacket using our fenders:

Full Metal Jacket JK

Please note he started the build using his own scratch built versions and the switched around page 5. It still takes some work to make the fit, but I think his build looked awesome.
