Interesting? When was this? and when is your Red JL scheduled to arrive? Any word on it?

I ordered my JL on 6/8 and it is currently on a rail car *somewhere*. I probably saw the purpose JK somewhere around 6/8, maybe a couple of days before that. On 7/24, they claimed it was in Fort Madison (Iowa). When I checked today, all they would say was that it was on a rail car *somewhere*. It might make it here before I head to the UK next Saturday. I would have liked it to make it here *this* Saturday, of course, but that doesn't look very likely.

And when I get back from the UK and Ireland in September, I have about a week before I head out to Honduras and won't be back for 8 days...

Dang... well if it's in Iowa... you might be looking at 7 days or so via rail if things are on schedule...from what I remembered seeing on Jeepgarage. When your Jeep makes it to Kansas, you legit have about 3-5 days in transit before it makes its way to Pearland.

Be safe on your travels!

I have to wonder how long that would last before one of those damn Yankee birds takes a crap in it. Yeah, *Yankee* birds... They fly down here for the winter, crap on everything, and then refuse to leave... :)

Looks good to me, but I’d be more interested in seeing what it’d look like with a Mojito! Dash panel.

Well, since you asked...

I think that's a wrap. The color seems a bit more matte and more "apple" than Mojito.

Or just pick up a couple of sets and do them as a core. Priced accordingly, he wouldn’t have to sit on a stock of them.

The airbag is attached to the panel.

Forgot to update my Mojito! Fam!

Dad helped me install my molded running boards:

And I installed my lug nut locks on all tires:

That Mojito is a good looking color...actually turned out better looking than I thought it'd be. I kinda' wish I had held out for it. I've got all sorts of ideas for awesome upgrades to one if I had! :clap: :)

Thank you! There was no other choice for me...as soon as I saw that green I was sold. That tone too, is my favorite color...it's perfect imo.
