Default 2012 colors

Here's a photo of the 2012 colors. I'm ordering a Rubicon tomorrow and I can't decide if crush is too extreme for a daily driver.

WOW Haven't seen those before. Thanks! I'm so confused on the colors. There are Chrysler people on record saying that the color on the J7 concept is "Crush" here are a couple pics.




I want that color, what ever they call it. What is throwing me off is the pic below is supposed to be Dozer but it don't really look like the color patches. Wish they would just release some photos of everything because if the don't release the J7 color I think I would rather have Tan.


Plus there is this out of the 2012 JK brochure

Here's a few close ups. The black forest looks black until you get it in the sun. Then you can see the green flake.

Try to see the colors in person... they never look as the color palettes. IMO...

also Black contrast really helps all colors look better..... IMO again..

good luck.... I ended up taking pictures of Jeeps on the parking lot and comparing them.... I also parked a few side by side.... ended up with one I liked but one the wife really liked.. she kind of won the color war....

Hi

Thank You for the picture.

Maybe just black color with some green flakes in it.

I think it looks to dark for my taste. I wish that they hade some dark green color that looks like green. I do not understand why the dropped the Natural Green Pearl, they still have that color on other Chrysler models.

For me a Jeep is Green, I want the military look.

Best regards from Sweden

I tried to load the PDF directly, but can't get the file loaded. I'm being told that the attachment is too big.

Here is the 2012 Exterior Paint Color Guide in PDF format...linked from another site. Maybe someone else can get it loaded.

All of the Wranglers are under #3...but it is interesting that Header Orange is offered...a bit of a shocker. However, both Header Orange and Crush have code PL4.....so it may be just a clear coat added. I'm really curious to see Winter Chill in person. The two color that I wanted the most (Mango Tango and Sahara Tan) are no longer offered....kinda bummed.
