Nope, didn't touch the floor in the first place.

Makes it SOOOOO much easier to drive. I don't stall nearly as often & it feels more responsive. (Well that would just be from being able to push the pedal further, quicker. )

But unless you are really stamping your foot down, it won't make a difference to pedal longevity.

I got my windscreen replaced and a good portion of the paint was removed from the windscreen frame in the process.

Rofl and Copter. Sigh.

They need to start shipping JKs with rattle can spray jobs so touchups can be done when required and easily.

Yeah I had this happen to mine as well. If they aren't careful cutting the Windscreen out they scrape the hell out of the frame. Because it sits so deep and with no trim like other cars on the road you get to see when they've been rough. Makes you wonder what sort of damage is hidden by the trim on other cars.

I had to get them to pull the screen and fix the paint on mine, they were more careful the second time.
