I have the solid bright white High Tide and live on the beach and have never once had hood glare issue even on extremely clear bright hot sunny days. Maybe get some good polarized sunglasses.

The glare is justification as to whether or not to add a decal. My seating position doesnt really bring much light reflection. I also did the TopLiner which really blackens and absorbs interior light. I absolutely love it. Brings it up a notch in finish too. I wear prescription sun glasses that are almost limo tinted. My eyes are very sensitive to light which triggers migraines. Sucks for me but It it what it is as they say.

Well I hope the AZ market heats up again soon…

We are heading out your way this Christmas, visiting my daughter - actually staying in usery mountain regional park campground. Bringing the jeep of course! Looking forward to seeing the old ‘hood and all the new growth.

Any good trails you could recommend?

Honestly, I'm an over the road guy so I can tell you the best paved routes to take when pushing 25 tons of bus getting 4mpg on a 2 stroke Detroit! I am new to the Jeeping world and in fact ordered a book on trails in Arizona.

I had vinyl graphics added to the hood and side on my Rubicon. Black with bronze edges.
