Default Mean looking JK grille and a custom hood

A while ago CARiD became a dealer of American Fastbacks - the aftermarket manufacturer of cool Jeep Wrangler body parts. These guys are famous for their hardtops, but there are few other remarkable parts in their product line:

Airborne Fiberglass Hood and Patriot Grille







#1 - American Fastbacks® - Airborne Fiberglass Hood
This grille doesn't only look great, but performs even better. We all know that Jeep engine can run hot and this hood will keep it cool using the functional ventilation openings.
It is installed on the OEM mounting points, and doesn't require modification.

View prices and more details on the hood here: American Fastbacks® - Airborne Fiberglass Hood


# 2 - American Fastbacks® - Patriot Grill

The grille is designed in the same style as the hood and looks simply awesome with it's mean unibrow. Except for the visual appeal it also improves the air dynamics and lets more airflow into your engine.

View prices and more details on the Grille here: American Fastbacks® - Patriot Grill

Both products are designed to be used together, although they fit nicely in the exterior of JK even if installed separately. Read more about American Fastbacks here.

What do you thing about the Grille and the Hood?

Nice hood. I'm not so sure the grille is going to sell here in Canada decked out with the U.S. Flag. Do you supply it with an all black "Jeep" emblem?

It actually comes black unpainted, so you can make your custom Jeep logo with any color or texture:

We're based in NJ and the shipping is free only within continental US. You can check the shipping cost to your door right on the website. Just add the product to the cart and fill in the order information (including yours hipping address) after that website will show you the total including shipping.
Or if it's more convenient for you let me have your postal code an I will check the total for you!

As I know additional fees and taxes apply on the border by Canadian local authorities.
