JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

IMO the paint scheme worked no the 70's Cherokee and Moab concept but can't say much about it on the JKU.

Default if they are going to mock a vehicle of the 70s

They should also use the quality steel they used in the 70s also . Not cheap new soda can thickness

btw That aint my cup of tea , on color choice either , should be laws against that being allowed in residential areas , rather offensive but thats prob the whole concept of this color

Figures, I'll be the unpopular kid on the block, again. Had a 2013 Rock Lobster JKU and traded it in on a truck. Missed having a Jeep so I traded in the truck today for a JKU Chief, yes the blue one. It reminded me of the Jeeps my Dad and uncles had when I was growing up, the stripe down the hood brought back memories of their old Renegades.

That's OK, I like being different anyway. Just don't complain too much when I post some pictures of my Jeep. Should be able to pick it up tomorrow afternoon or Monday.

Might be the contrast between the white and blue, in addition to the painted fenders and chrome. Here's a Hardrock Rubi in Chief.

I will bet it looks pretty good with the top and doors off, I imagine it to be very retro.

I like it. I love throwback. Don't worry about what other people think. When you want to look like everyone else, you can black out a JKU. For now, enjoy yourJeep.

Mine isn't really blacked-out but it is black... I think the retro is cool. I wish I had the money to have a wide selection of Jeep's to pick from every single day.

bright yellow or green to cheer me up,
red so I could join the little red jeep clubs,
Classic black for funerals, weddings (same thing really)
White, tan, camo, even old beat up, rusted and unsure what the color. Gotta have one of those.

forget the haters and enjoy rolling in your ride.
