I'm just going to ease my mind with the thought that it will look a lot better on an extreme recon rubicon with black grill and upper door decal, fingers 🤞
Oh I am absolutely certain that it will on the XR, especially with the black grill. I would like to see black grill with body colored fenders and top.

Here is another she just sent me. It shows the color real well.

The color does look a bit different from the pics we've seen up until now, so thank you for sharing. What it looks like in this picture is a blank canvas just waiting to be personalized. I envision many possibilities for that wide expanse of paint. Will be interesting to see what you and your wife do with it in the coming months!

Also was wondering, it is probably just the natural light angle, but the cowling piece right in front of the left corner of the windshield looks like a slightly different shade. Must be the light...

Hi. Congratulations on the new Jeep. I haven’t seen an Earl in person yet, but I have to argue with it being Seafoam Green. I had a 91’ YJ that was Seafoam and it doesn’t look like your wife’s Earl. Sorry.

In comparing the two new colors....I hate to admit, I’m officially off the Earl train.

To be fair, I don't think the Earl is too bad in that photo. With that being said, the Reign is incredible. But what made me choke is this photo with the Bikini Pearl in the background with hot pink "stuff" all over it! What the...? That color needs NO enhancement. It's abuse I tell ya. ;)

I’m here to tell all of you that Earl is a chameleon color! It looks different in the day/night, sun/shade, it varies between phones/cameras/lighting. You must see it in person in all conditions! I’m not kidding! It’s gorgeous 🥰😍!!

I ordered my Rubicon XR with a 3-piece black hard top, black fenders because I already had plans to change them out and I ordered the body matching grille. Well, once we got it home, I decided I didn’t like the body matching grille so much. That’s just me bc my husband and I go off-roading and to me a black grille would look better.

My husband ended up purchasing a MOPAR Black Grille but took it even further. He used Rust Oleum’s Truck Bed Liner Spray Paint and he sprayed numerous thin coats onto it, letting each coat dry in between. It came out fantastic!!! It ended up matching the new Bestop Granite Series Bumpers and Fender Flares!!

Wow! Nice! I have to say that the Earl is not a bad color at all. :) But how in the world is there not a speck on your Jeep? That's incredible! I can't get out of the car wash before there's some bug splattered on the windshield. :D

The dirt and mud really doesn’t show up that much on it lol. But here’s some other photos after three days in Cañon City, Victor & Woodland Park, Colorado where it did show up 😁.

It's what put my wife over the edge into a Wrangler. Otherwise she'd have never bought one. But once she saw a picture I took and texted to her, teasing her (knowing she loved Grand Cherokee and multiple times turned down Wranglers) - all I heard was "have you found me a purple Jeep yet" for a week.
So.......

When it's really clean, if you look close you can see hints of red, blue and other color "sparkles" in the paint, little colored metallic flecks.
Pictures don't do some of these colors justice.

This is before putting the RSE power steps on it. We tried the Sahara type steps/running boards and they just weren't enough for my wife (barely for me).
