I want that (6 pc), but have no faith. Maybe in a year or 2.

I am sorry. Not trying to be a jerk. But can you explain this? If you can see it and determine if you like it, how can you say you don't like it only if it's 33s? If you are set on 35s fine. But that's a weird statement.

The red Rubi looks great. Not a fan of those wheels. The soft top picture looks awesome.

Was the JK the only generation to not have painted hinges?

I'm not positive, but I'm pretty sure the JK and TJs had black hinges for the tailgate. I guess another reason they may look a little off is the taillights come around to the sides of the Jeep now too.

TJ & JK. Both with black hinges for tailgate.

I know we have seen many examples of the dealers being clueless during this transition period, but for what it is worth, the dealer I met with last night told me that the rear side panels on the new hard tops will be separate from the roof as well as the rear window. Making the “6 piece” hardtop we have been hoping for. Take it with a grain of salt tho

I keep seeing a line in the back of the hard top that would make this plausible. Hope he’s right. That would be awesome.

The owners manual says otherwise.

It is in the order as a 3 piece hard top, so I think that dealer is mistaken.

I thought I'd hate those wheels, but I'm loving them since I saw the side view of them in the pic they released of the red 2 door at Sema. I think they'll look great in person.

Its got to be the monochrome tailgate hinges.

I don't like the painted tailgate hinges either. Aren't the black hinges on JK just plastic covers? I'm sure aftermarket will provide covers if Jeep does not.

That would really suck for those of us that purchase a 2018 only to have the new top released in 2019 or 2020.

You'll be able to buy it aftermarket, if it is that good.

True but I'm already spending $1,000 or more for hardtop option. I don't want to spend another $1,000 to $2,000 for updated hardtop in 1-2 years.

Maybe this dealer is confusing the freedom top with the removable panels of the power top.

Now that Jeep has officially revealed the 2018 Wrangler JL, it looks like they're no longer shy about hiding their newest baby!

Like the look large fenders and all. Wheels work for me.

What's the official color on the pictured JK? Trying to figure out what the new Ocean Metallic will look like.
