Thoughts on these two? I was sold on the Sting Gray, but now I’m considering the Earl Gray since I have to wait to order anyway. The only thing- I think the red Rubicon letters might look better on the Sting.

I'm guessing Earl will replace Sting. I like Sting a lot. The color changes depending on the lighting.

2020 JLUR Stingray
Well, my favorite Wrangler color is Anvil. I waited for the 2020 MY to see if it was coming to the JL. But, after seeing Sting Gray, I really liked it. Overall I'm glad I got my 2020 JLUR when I did & really glad I got Sting Gray. I have to admit that Earl Gray looks interesting & could be amazing in person. But, I would still get the Sting Gray, no matter what. The red accents do look good on it, but just about any accent color looks good on Sting Gray.

If you're having to wait, maybe you will get a chance to see Earl Gray in person. Perhaps Earl will replace Sting, but it may be replacing Billet Silver Metallic.

If it was me, & I was waiting, I would try to see each color in person before deciding. But, as far as I'm concerned, you can't go wrong with SG.:like:

I like them both, but I think I prefer the sting grey. Won’t be disappointed if my pending 21 order gets bumped and I have to pick that earl grey color.

Earl looks exactly like Cactus Grey on the Ford Bronco. I hope if they do bring this color for 2022 they change the name. No offense to any Earls out there. But the one I know is the biggest A-hole on the planet. Wouldn't want to think of him every time I see my Jeep. Lol.

You are correct. Earl has blue tones. Ford’s Cactus has green tones.

Some have theorized that Earl is the same color as Dodge’s Smoke Show. I‘m not convinced yet, but here’s a Smoke Show Challenger. Could be a Tuscadero thing where they share a paint code but have different names.
