I ran into an Arctic Edition JK while I was in Charlotte this weekend and honestly my wife and I both loved the color. I did a quick search and see they called the color Arctic Chill, I wonder if the Earl Grey is close to it? I was not thinking about a new Jeep, I love my Granite '21, but in that Arctic Chill........

I’d rather they had simply gone with a lighter shade of Sting Gray. I’m not a fan of the powder blue. YMMV.

People arguing over what a color looks like, and no one has seen the color in person. I hope it looks red in person so everyone will be wrong. I ordered an Earl Gray Rubi with the colored top and fenders. I'm taking a chance. It worked out well when I ordered Bikini Pearl on my last one.
I got the same! I was starting at it on the US build & price tool with the black HT & fenders and somehow it didn't look quite "right" to me after consulting with my sister & best friend for their opinions, I went with the matching HT & fenders..... A little worried it's gonna look too pretty for a Jeep, but I have a VIN and it's too late to change my order, so lol, what can you do!?

I did the same. I figure it's a lot easier to downgrade to the black top and fenders than it would be to paint the textured black. You can always wrap the painted top and flares too.

I thought that way about the Tuscadero jeeps, and now after seeing them with blacked out wheels and bumpers I think they look sick. I should have picked up that color when I had the chance. I dont think you can ever go wrong with paint matched HT and Fenders.

Sick as is good sick? I tried to order in that color, but apparently the last order placed Buy this one dealer was April 2022 with that color although I think it’s coming out on some of the other models like maybe a Rubicon or something
OP, You take this picture??
Let's beat a dead horse...

I happened upon the Bronco Cactus color which is supposed to be close to the Earl Grey. Compared to the Jeep behind the chainlink fence (which I'm reposting here) and the EG color on the build site, this Bronco is lighter and is a less saturated blue. All is relative.

In one of the pics you'll see a white car in the back for comparison, and also one shot of my Prius, which is definitely a saturatred sea mist/pearlized/metallic color, which matches the build site color...(which I don't think is accurate). Prolly in between everything whatever that means. Then a CU shot in sun and one i

I agree and that's why I ordered mine with black fenders, but with power top but I think the black fenders will make a huge difference just like they did on my 2018 2 Dr punk'n rubicon

that was my first choice, but I'm too late for it. The Earl Grey seems washed out and I don't think the bill site is accurate..wish it were.

You're right. I've had Jeeps since 2013. Still the best color in the last 10 years.
Ahhh Anvil. Such a great color! My wife and I still reflect on that color and smile.....
but then we remind ourselves of the V6 falling apart and feel better about selling it.

I ordered Black Fender also and Satin Grill, might regret it but on the Build Site it just looked like to much blue without the contrast of the Black. Plus the Painted Fenders just get hammered an rock chiped out here with all the gravel roads.

Saw this Willys 4xe at the end of a TFL video. I can't tell if it's Earl or not. Grays all look the same to me.

It could be Sting Gray though.
