PUNK'N Wrangler Jl club

[ranrey]

@ranery POST PIX! We need more Punk'n pix! Especially those of us on the fence ready to order. Thanks!

@Arkewn I understand. We just got to the hotel and dark caught up to us. I have some early IPhone pics. Also, I took some with a camera just a few minutes ago at dusk. I looked at the iPhone pics earlier and others are correct when they say even though some pics show a redness my Punk'n has no redness that I see. We are planning on some sightseeing tomorrow at a state park and I will take several pictures and post. I will try and post a couple tonight, though. BTW-totally great experience taking delivery at Superior in Conway Arkansas!

Can anyone verify that the Punk'n Metallic color actually has any metallic flake look to it?
I've read some conflicting posts. I really liked the color in the Jeep website renderings, but not so much the traffic cone orange look that seems to be out there on recent deliveries.
Sorry if I missed something.

Although ours is still on order, I have seen a Punk'n wrangler at a dealership. I specifically attempted to find anyway to have the term metallic associated with Punk'n and could not find even a hint of metal flake anywhere. To these old eyes it is orange, orange, and orange with a beautiful finish. Bright on an overcast day, even brighter in the sun. Perhaps bleaches out a little in the sun, but still orange. In every case it is much brighter than any traffic cone I've seen. Bright Orange Clearcoat is the name that fits best in my opinion.

Thanks @jjmarkus the dealer had not noticed the missing fuel door. They installed one before I arrived at the dealership. I think I would have noticed but excitement takes over and I get a little antsy and I might have missed it.

I know just what you mean. While the dealer is trying to do the required walk around and tell you how everything works, I'm like just get out of my way and let me go...let alone inspect that everything is as is supposed to be. Enjoy that new ride! I'm envious!

Thanks jj, I get it. Sort of bummed about the lack of metal flake though.

JLUR Punk'n at delivery from dealer this afternoon. Notice the huge box in the back. That contains the soft top. Perhaps that is why they were not shipping these later to the customer. It is heavy and huge.

I installed the grill guard and the grab handles in the hotel parking lot. This color is great! BTW- My wife is disabled and still gets in the Rubicon fairly easily. I was concerned but not anymore. I do plan on installing 315/70/17 BFG K02 on bead locks which are back in my garage, so this may change.

I looked at the one located at Helfman Jeep in Houston Tx......didn't see any flake , liked color just no flake. At that point we had already ordered just wanted to see in person.

@ranrey the grill guard is an expensive add but looks so good. I'm going to go with it until I need a real stinger. The rig looks awesome. Can't wait for more pictures. Grats!

@Krondor Thanks! I like it’s looks as well. Plus I will install aux lights and like the grill guard location best for that.

Mopar. It comes with replacement bolts and they say to throw away original bolts. The best I can tell the bolts are the same and the originals only fill a hole and a nut awaiting for an accessory to be added. Reusing the old bolts may reduce their strength is my guess.
