Emblems
Got new Rubicon style emblems on today and replaced the chrome ones. Also debadged the decals from below them. Here is a before and after.
I have Wrangler decals coming in medium grey with red trim and those are in the lettering style of the Rubicon.
I will add my JL decals from Eddie when they show up, I ordered them in red and white.
I have LOD signiture sliders on order and they should arrive in two weeks or so. After that I should be satisfied for a bit. I want to wait and see what the venders come up with before I make too many plans.

Representing
Got these last night, one for each side. Wasn't sure if the "J" in black would show up very well so I went with the white.
It's a little loud right now but it should balance out better later. I will probably add the JLWrangler windshield banner in white.
I am also considering machined finished beadlock wheels, powder-coated in a metallic red but a polished ring. The ring will really stand out.
That is much down the road however...

Thank you Sir!
Thanks! Actually it's a 5, but to answer your question... progress is slow. Having a new house and two Jeeps causes all of them to not get quite enough attention. First world problems for sure.
Thanks, I appreciate it! :drinks:

The UNWANTED Mod
Less than 1500 miles and I already need a new windshield. Apparently, the extra lean on the windshield frame does not improve the aerodynamics enough to lessen rock chip incidents.
My irritated and non-scientific opinion aside, the bigger hassle is none of the glass places have it yet because it is so new. They have to order it directly from a dealership.
This will take somewhere between 5 days and two weeks. After it comes in, then I can set an appointment.
It's not the end of the world, but I did want to take it to California to see some family this weekend, but it's a pain to look out of because the crack is right in the line of sight.
I keep getting blinded when the sun hits it just right or when it's dark and headlights glare across it. Looks like we take the wife's family truckster instead. :grayno:
In better news, my LOD sliders are showing a delivery date of Thursday from FedEx. So, sweet!

LOD sliders
The LOD sliders came today. Packaged very nicely and in perfect condition. Super easy install, less than an hour.
There are still 3 holes I need to drill, but these things are very solid as is. For street use, you don't even need the extra holes. It will easily hold the weight of a big boy.
Other than the extra holes it's an easy bolt on and they are a bit different than the JK ones install wise.
I would highly recommend to anyone and definitely do the powdercoat if you want it in black. It looks really good and no one else is going to be able to do it for only $20 extra dollars.

Bestop
This is at the top of my list when it comes out this fall. Loved the fast back on my JK (and my original CJ). This is even nicer.
The video shows that the Sunrider portion is better and the rear panels go on and off really easy. Bestop makes great stuff.
May do the soft half doors and uppers too for top down weather. They look good as well, though not much different than the JK ones.
