An anonymous source has sent this photo of what's purported to be the front grille for the 2018 Jeep Wrangler (JL / JLU)!
Consistent with spied JL prototypes, this JL grille features a widened seven slot design which combines elements from past Wranglers. The kinked/bent slats hark back to the YJ grille and the headlights recessing into the slats draws inspiration from the CJ grille.
Also consistent with the prototypes' grilles is the lack of the turn signal lights (which have been redesigned and incorporated into the fenders) and the removal of the Jeep logo from the grille.
This represents possibly the second leaked production/pre-production part. In October, a JLwranglerforums member shared what was likely a JL Rubicon hood used for testing purposes.

Here's a preview of what the grille would look like on the JLU Wrangler (from our JL renderings set):
