Default New JL prototype dropped some camoflage covering

Haven't seen these posted yet.

2018 Wrangler Drops Some Camo. Shows Backup Camera and Some New Parts | 2018+ Jeep Wrangler Forums (JL / JT) - Pickup Truck, Unlimited, Sport - JLwranglerforums.com

Looks like a new prototype. They're certainly not changing much lol. I'll keep my JK thank you very much.

Nice new running boards though. The biggest changes are covered by the front and rear heavy camo anyway.

That windshield angle looks like a considerable change.....for the worse aesthetically. I get the aerodynamics of such a change....but dang.

As a first-time Wrangler owner, I look forward to making fun of the JL for the next 10 years! It's a right of passage I've been looking forward to.

That's what the tj crowd has been doing towards the jku since 2006.

The windshield glass is also a lot more flat. Car is looking more and more like they're trying to bring back elements from the TJ (like a styled hood).

Flat window with hinges at the corners, lights on the fenders, stylized hood... it really does seem like they're melding the TJ into the JK. I had not looked at it like that before.
