Default Custom Paint Jobs...???

I've done a few searches, and I have only seen, other than the Wounded Warrior JK, about 3 other custom paint jobs.

I'm surprised that there aren't more.

If you have one....then let's see it...!!!

Thanks....

I'm not saying the custom paint jobs are not cool, but most people who are likely to spend money adding stuff to their jeep are going to spend their cash on parts that improve the performance.

To me, paint is just a protective coating to prevent corrosion of the panels and help me figure out which Jeep in the parking lot is mine. The fact that I get to pick a color is just a bonus. I picked white since it is the easiest to keep clean, doesn't show scratches, and doesn't really ever fade over the long haul.
