Re: JP JKU?

I have the Jeep...have just honestly been enjoying having a new car for the first time in many years. Going to start talking to custom shops to look at the cost of having the paint done. Probably won't get to do paint till spring time.

Re: JP JKU?

do you have any pics? would love to see how someone else handled it. So after much waiting (for the jeep to come from the factory) I have it in my hands. Brand new with only 78 miles on it! I am super excited as this is my first new car in many a moon. I will post pics when I get home :)

kokopelli: ...and for 2015 they have even removed Dune from the lineup.

ausjeep: You are killing me with the half doors man. :) They look sooooo sexy, but with the thefts that have happened in the parking garage at my work place the soft top just makes me nervous. :(

I almost wonder if silver is closer. are you sure you weren't thinking of the desert tan color they discontinued a few years ago? I might take and put them all side by side and see what they look like. As far as the h...
