Decal ideas
 
Hey guys. I've got an all blacked out JK that needs some decals. I'm kinda torn which way to go here. I want something on the hood and side panels. Any ideas? ?

Keep the black theme going I think. Black out ur factory decals, then u could get the Oscar Mike decals in black

Go with a matte black color. The contrast will look pretty good.

I was definitely thinking a matte color.
Like a gun metal maybe. Keep it dark but just add enough so it can be seen.
What about some wording where it normally says Rubicon on hood?
How about a jurassic park theme?

I am indifferent to the wording. Probably because I'm not crafty enough. As for the color. I did this on my Dodge Ram. It's amazing how a subtle little change like a monochromatic style can be added to a vehicle and people notice. I recall other Dodge Ram owners asking me if it was a special edition. I only did it as I had a new tailgate and the dealer made the mistake of applying a Matte black label on the black tail gate. I liked it and bought the lettering for the side as well. I think black on black works well. I have the Sahara tan. I don't think it would look as good on the tan.

I've got a blacked out rubicon. I changed the "Rubicon" hood decal and added some decals on the side panel in front of the doors. All of them are matte black. I love the look. I can take some pics if you want.

I like that invader doubleD.
Yes would love to see the pics of the black on black. Matte black decals might be the way to go.

Fortunately with black you can go as mild or wild as you like. I have red reflective on mine and love it. There are many matte colors available now which look nice on black

I used black 3M vinyl for my stickers on the side. Look black in the daytime, but reflect white when light shines on them.

My wife's black Altitude came with the flat black decal on the hood. The UPS guy stopped one day as he was going by and I was cleaning her Jeep and no sh*t, this is what he said...

"I've been thinking about that sticker residue you have on the hood and I think the best way to get it off would be steel wool."

Wrong on so many levels. lol

I think the matte black is the way to go... I've got a crystal granite rubi, replaced all my decals and added a few matte black decals and it came out great! Think the black on black would look sweet :thumbsup:

Go the flat black look. I have it on my hard top windows and put them in place of my factory wrangler sticker on the front panels. They are a little hard to see in the pics
