i have no idea where to buy/source a comouflage netting for your jeep in india.

but im sure it will make your jeep look cool!

here are some different camo nettings and the trusted old Landy too!

kudos mate. The 540 looks fantastic. good job. Where are you located if I'd want to see your jeep? I've got a CJ3B. Its a 2wd and yet to convert it to 4wd.

Killer jeep you have there VJ ! Really tastefully done and looks the part. Are you a wildlife enthusiast/photographer !? What part of Bangalore are you from !? Hope you dont mind if some of us drop in to have a look at your jeep

Looking forward to more pics of your jeep..

Hi Vijay

Nice jeep

check snorkel head angle, it should be bent down wards, check with manufactures manual.

here is a link to the camo net you were looking for. its an indian company by the name MKU.

MKU :: MKU Camouflage Nets, Camouflage Nets, Multi Spectral Camouflage Nets

discoverwild · 22nd July 2009, 13:14

Parm,

I doubt if you could buy it from them, since they are supplying it to the armed forces.

Parm,
there are a lot of Warnglers in Dubai having this camo nets wrapped in the loading bay. Do you have any idea on its price?

vikrantj · 22nd July 2009, 14:08

Looks great. One question is the snorkel a part original equipment or you had that made yourself. Everything apart 20years unbelieveable. Simply cool.

vj_k2001 · 22nd July 2009, 16:15

The snorkel was designed....

Parm · 23rd July 2009, 01:16

i will try to get info about the camo nets from dubai, its availability, size and price!

vj,
A handsome no frills jeep is what you have transformed a twenty old into.
All is nice and in place, of course others have pointed the upward tilted angle intake of the snorkel. A word of advice...don't take it into cantonment or army areas as there is a possibility of this vehicle being seized due to its army clone looks and also the 4 stars in front and the HQ 1.
If you are lucky they may just salute you until they freeze and fall, as 4 star means only Chief of Army.
Regards,
