For a long time I've wanted a Jeep in my collection, but could never really find an old kit at a good price. I was excited to find out they were releasing this new kit and sought one out. The kit itself, however, shows that they went with the older moldings. It's not very great and there's a lot of asking, "why did they do this" in the build. For starters, the dash attaches to the wind shield, which is separate from the body. There's a bunch of fit issues, most notably, the wind shield and hood. The wind shield does not fit all the way down into the slot, so there's a small crack. The hood isn't wide enough to fit. I had to slide it forward so it hangs out over the grill. If not there would be a huge gap with the body. There was also a fit issue with the doors and top, so I left them off. It made me sad since I put a lot of work into the paint job on both.
