Getting close to ordering, but need a little help finalizing color choice. After initially loving that beautiful ocean blue, but ruling it out with a blue FJ and a blue Scout already in the stable, we were 99% set on sting-gray...but now FIRECRACKER RED is in the mix. After searching through the 2 door threads and the firecracker red thread (admittedly not all of either thread but as much as my patience would allow), Iā€™ve concluded that 2 door Rubicons in Firecracker Red arenā€™t nearly as common as blue or gray...at least those owned by people who post pictures online. So, to help with my decision making, if anyone has a 2 door JL Rubicon with a 2 - 3 1/2ā€ lift, stock rubicon rims, and 35-37ā€ tires, and would be willing to post some pics, Iā€™d love to see them. Bonus points for a black top or soft top. Pics with these specs seem to be a dime a dozen in grey and blue but I sure havenā€™t seen any in red. Apologies to any I may have missed. Thanks in advance!

Not a 2-door or a Rubicon but a Firecracker Red.

Iā€™ve owned many Wranglers, most of them some shade of green; this is my first red Jeep. I didnā€™t set out to get a red Jeep but I love it!

Firecracker is a very rich, deep color. Plus I can find it right away in a parkade!

Little known fact: Firecracker Red has a long heritage, going back to 1970.

Looks great! To update my original post, I ordered a JLR in mid December. Went with the FIRECRACKER RED! Waiting for its arrival is tough. Iā€™ll update with pics once itā€™s here.
