Look what Jeep snuck in on the High Altitude Wrangler

I like my vents. They look good when you are driving. Do they have any function? Not really. But I still like them.

Looking cool is a critical function to many jeep owners.

Last week I discovered the fake scoops do have a value when I swapped my white Rubi hood for a non + $500. Looks cleaner to me.

I like my hood scoops - but honestly could not care less if they were there. I think it does look better smooth. Also, I like the hood mounted solar sheet and you cannot do that with the scoops.

I prefer the vented hood but your rig looks great. Very clean look indeed!

I agree, the vented hood looks a bit tacky.

The Rubicon hood vents just need some gauges installed.

That’s right. It’s the new Mall Crawler Group. Every time the mall has a big sale, the entire dashboard lights up like a Christmas tree...

The vents will look very hot if FCA comes out with a Dragon Edition Package for a JLU Rubicon any where in the world. Here is an example of what they had in China for the JK: http://um.auto.sina.com.cn/ipad/news/2012-04-26/11191488.shtml

Anyone have a thermal imaging camera and a Rubicon? Point it at the hood after a long drive and post the pictures.

Oh we got that hideous thing here, too. Dealers couldn’t give those things away!

FCA came up with a kit for dealers to peel off the dragon from the sides and slap new hood stickers to turn them into...Golden Eagle editions! Voila!

They are heavier duty axles compared to Rubicon

As in being vented rear brakes? It looks like it from the picture. That's very cool

 

[AnnDee4444]

So does this mean that the JT rear brakes be swapped to a JL?

I've thought the lamest Wrangler feature was the fake hood vents on Rubicons. This is now my #1

Hey, listen here mister! They are in fact a functional feature. They have a little weep hole to not fill with water. See? Functional!
