While stopping by my dealer to say hello and see what was new in the lot I had the pleasure of seeing my first HellaYella Sahara. Better in person then I expected, it did bring back some memories of earlier attempts at yellow on earlier models. I remembered the XJ in yellow which was nearly impossible to get your hands on. IMHO I think they got the HellaYella, Mojito and Punk`n spot on. I still love my OceanBlue Metallic but seeing them lined up next to each other, I think it would be a difficult decision to make

I agree. I have a firecracker red Sahara and don't like the chrome inserts on the grill. It's a minor thing. But I like the yellow HellaYella pic here.

We love our hella yella. The one thing we wished was that it was a little brighter. The LA auto show color looked a lot more yellow and I wish we had a little more brightness to it. However still love it regardless. I wanted mojito but the boyfriend scratched that :p so we agreed on Hella Yella!

Just saw HellaYella in person and it it SHARP. If that had been available it would have been a real possibility for me.

I dont like the sahara silver inserts on the grill/lights though. Black inserts would be nicer.

Jeeep needs to lose the darn chrome. I painted mine the day I drove it home. Might have worked in the 90s, but not now. It just looks off when coupled with some of these colors.

Mojito! is terrible. Looks like Kermit the Frog and a sequin prom dress had a baby, and then the baby vomited.

But the Hella Yella is very nice and Punk'n is spot on. In the JK days we called these the "Skittles colors" but they do work on a Wrangler.

That Yellow is even better with black accents instead of chrome. Chrome is just "not for me."

What is this "Chrome" y'all are speaking of? Do you mean the Billet Silver inserts that aren't shiny in the least bit?

If you don't like them you don't like them and I won't fault you for that, but they sure aren't Chromium plated and match the billet silver paint on my Jeep exactly.
