You're from College Station AND you like the orange?!

Isn't there some law against liking orange within 100 sq miles of A&M? 😁
Dude, I was thinking the same thing! That's like someone in Auburn liking Crimson! LOL

Looks great! I'm personally not a fan of the blue either, so I've been searching for threads like these on how to essentially replace all the blues. Do you also have pictures of the side decals with the Jeep logo? The 22 Sahara comes with a Jeep logo that has blue trim and I'm trying to figure out how to replace that

I can dig it… I honestly love the surf blue on mine but the orange looks really good too. But I definitely don’t like the key hole and antenna idea. I think that would be going overboard and cheapen the overall look of the Jeep. Keep it simple and clean :)

Oh man, the Plasti-dip with glossifier looked really good on the keyholes and the black on the antenna was awesome. mythreedom.com makes keyhole covers that just pop on. I'll see if I can find a picture of my old Jeep after i did it there.

The Plasti-Dip just adds a matte look to the badges and Jeep logo to get rid of the shininess of the chrome. I really liked it on my black Jeep.

I get crap for mine occasionally. "Wrong town for that color!" yelled at me as I'm driving down Texas. But mostly compliments. What can I say, I watched too much Dukes of Hazzard as a kid.

Looks really nice. Guess that's Sam Houston? And are those 37's?

Hey guys, just wanted to post this and show what I'm doing as well as to solicit some ideas from others. The Surf Blue, while not bad, doesn't give that pop that I get with orange. Especially on a Granite Crystal paint job. First, I removed the Rubicon lettering and the matte and blue 4xe hood vinyl, and lastly the blue outlined Wrangler Unlimited. I'd really like to find a Trail Rated badge that has orange where ours is blue. The Gladiator Mojave would be perfect but it says Desert Rated. I probably could use the Mojave Jeep logo though because I think it sits in an orange trim. Now I need to find orange tow hooks. I will probably just pull the bumper off to get to them so I can sand and paint them. If it comes down to it I can always Plasti-dip the badge and Jeep text black like I did on my last Jeep. I'll probably Plasti-dip my keyholes and antenna, too.

Thoughts?

I think the orange looks killer on the Granite Crystal. And @pixeldecals was on point with the graphics.
Good job

I dig it! But, there's definitely a list in that town for "If The Purge Ever Becomes Reality" with your name right up near the top...

It's funny because I love that damn school too. I just like orange. But maroon is a good color too. I tried to convince my better half that she needed a snazzberry Diesel gladiator. She did not think that it would be the ideal vehicle for driving back and forth to Houston daily...
