Spied: Wrangler 2-Door JL Rubicon Soft Top and Export JL Sport Hard Top

[shnngns]

I wonder why there's no indicators in the side mirrors?

Those also look like different wheels than have been shown on the other Rubicon pictures.

There are about 7+ Rim designs going around, but that one has been seen before a few times, including on a hard top JL on the Rubicon trail.

A quick rundown of the known suspects provided by Ahmed (which doesn't even included the black steelies from the side by side soft tops; the ones above are #5 in the gallery);

Any speculation on why they have the front grill completely taped up??

'

Someone speculated chrome, but I doubt it.

Also, the soft top just looks kinda puffy on the top. Perhaps it's an aerodynamics thing, perhaps a makeshift top, or perhaps a new design choice? The roundness of it doesn't seem to fit the boxy aesthetic of the rest.

I looks like it has a framed rear window like the Trektop NX pro. Would be nice to not have to worry about zippers.

I think this is a power soft top due to the odd bulge in the middle of the roof portion

I also just noticed for the first time that really pronounced backup camera in the center of the spare tire.

Looks like this is the OEM version of Bestop's new Trektop NX Glide.

It's interesting that it has 4 cross bows though... Possibly a powered version?

No evidence of zippers contributes to that theory.

So excited to see the 2 door!

I agree!

I think the grill is taped to conceal openings that would take lights when the modular high line flare strips come off for bigger tire clearance. Maybe those strip lights will fit in there ?
The soft top is intriguing, finally easy off/on panels ? No Zippers !

The front grill hour glass design looks odd and the black on the fenders makes them look thin.

The grill appears identical to the Safari concept revealed at Easter Jeep Safari. Maybe it's taped to cover the turn signals? The painted top part of the fender flares also look identical to the flares on the concept. Maybe the fender liners are removable for added clearance? How awesome would that be?

It definitely looks like there is a rectangular opening for a turn signal under the headlight that is taped over. It's almost like the fog lights and turn signals are switched from the Safari concept bumper/grill.

The hump on the soft top is extremely ugly makes it look like a convertible car.
