Default Rescue theme

I have an 09 x with 38s on a 4" lift...I'm wanting to paint it up like a rescue veh and wonder if anyone has done the same. Looking for existing pics to get an idea from. Attached is what I've got to work with. Thanks in advance for the ideas!!

Skip rescue theme and go straight to jurassic park theme! .... But.... If you do choose rescue I always like the classic white and red rescue scheme.

I vote white stickers saying 'rescue" on the sides of the hood. Maybe
"off-highway Rescue"

it's not my jeep but I found this on the KN filters page, http://www.knfilters.com/news/news.aspx?id=3069

They called it a "Project Rescue Rubicon".

Like the one Newman was driving. Those things made me want a Jeep way back when Jurassic Park came out and I was 12

Keep in mind that if you make a "resuce" vehicle people may assume you have some sort of BLS (basic life suppport), EMT or First Aid skills... While i love the concept and i'd like to do it too I think of, maybe not the liability, but maybe the expectation people may have of you.

Now while i am CPR AED and first aid certified I may not neccesarily want to market my vehicle as such...

I think maybe a search and rescue theme might be more appropriate for the Jeep.

I guess at the end of the day it comes down to interpitation.

Agreed - I'm an EMT/Firefighter & BLS Instructor and I don't flaunt my "Rescue" abilities. I got flagged down at a car accident once, and you have a legal obligation to stop. I wouldn't put it on if I were you.. it's a giant target.
