Hi guys! Its been a few months since i got my mojito and lifes been a bit crazy but I finally got around to making a big change to my jl Got a shark grille and got it paint matched. Kinda on the fence about it tho, what do you guys think? Might want to sell this and go back to my stock grille LOL :facepalm::CWL:

sometimes a like the "angry" grill looks, sometimes not. Paint-match does tone it down a bit. Color looks great!

I don't usually give my opinion on these, BUT you did ask.
So here is MY opinion. The iconic Seven slot grill should never be messed with. Angy eyes with seven slots is still pushing it for me. I cringe when ever I see one.
The painted parts to match does make it look a little better though.

I like the stock grill more, and I think most people on this forum would probably agree, people like the classic Jeep look. But its your Jeep, your money, your choice. I do agree with the others, the paint match does make it better though. No harm in trying it out longer though.

did you paint the grill and towhooks yourself?
No. I bought the Mopar grill. I removed the hooks and dash panels and gave them to a painter. If I wasn’t doing the dash panels, I’d have tried spraying the tops of the hooks myself.

You know personally with the green I like the mopar black painted grill like the one a couple of pics down from you. However yours is one of the nicest i have ever seen done that way. its unique and since its black in the middle looks pretty cool and mean..lol.. I would say live with it for awhile and see how you like it and if not you can always sell it later but it looks good to me!

One more thing i would paint the toe hooks mojito green also but that's just me! lol

OK one more last thing I would name your Jeep Angry Bird and have the decals made for each side of your hood! Ok I have spent enough of your money..HAHA

Finally posting pictures of my 2018 Mojito Moab. I picked her up March 23 from Lustine Jeep in Virginia..I drove my 2015 JKU down to trade and picked her up... I drove back up to New York for first 250 miles. Put on my 20 inch Fuel Full Blown than decided the shoes needed to match the suit and had them painted Mojito body color.

Very nice my friend and a much improved look on those shoes. Just wondering how long it took for them to paint them and please how much? Thanks and congrats on the new baby girl.
