Bill, I have a question for ya. If I install some TJ headlights, and
make a vacuform mask for my headlights with a round cutout, and install
all this on my YJ....

Would you you consider it a REAL JEEP?

(I'm halfway serious about doing this!)

I think rectangular headlights look good on my Bronco. I do see
many putting the CJ front clip on:

I wouldn't, but maybe the leaf spring setup?

I paid $16055 for my '94 YJ Sport 4.0 with a sticker of $17500. I can't see
spending $17,000 for a used YJ no matter what the mileage.
