STING GRAY Wrangler JL Club

[JeepTime]

Fresh out of the car wash

Looks super clean! Have you run this through a touch car wash? Wondering how the paint looks up close after? This is my first non-metallic car and I'm afraid to run it through a non-touchless car wash!

Also amazes me how different this color looks in various lighting! Sometimes it's very dark, sometimes very light etc. Love it

Thank you. I have not and will not run it through a non touch car wash. There is a great hand car wash by my job so Im just going to go there. A non touch car wash over time will def show the swirls up close with this paint.

I'm going to place the order for Sting-Gray badges in about a week. I doubt there will be enough interest for another round.

So if you want one let me know. You can post in this thread or the Badge Thread or PM me. Price is $18/badge.

More info: Sting-Gray Badges

It's a little early (they don't become an option til June 26th) but you should pop in to the Gladiator forums. There will be Sting-gray trucks later this summer.

I have posted over there and a few Gladiator guys have ordered them. Thanks.

I get to pick up my new '18 Sting gray JUL-S next Tuesday. I'm flying to Dallas, and driving it back home to south FL. I am hoping to pick up a set of Rubi takeoffs on my way home. I found a few in the DFW area that seem to be pretty close to my target price, and I am hoping Benjamins talk at the time of sale.
The dealer I'm buying the jeep from is blasting out their 2018's, so I got it for almost $9K off, and unlike FL dealers, the TX dealer only charges $150 doc fee. Its closer to $800 in FL. The dealer is also letting me use my Jeep driveplus card for my down payment (which I will immediately pay off), so I'll accrue $900 in rewards bucks to use at any FCA dealer. They are also delivering the Jeep to me at the airport.
I found another dealer that will sell me a set of Katzkins for $709 plus shipping, which I'll use those rewards bucks on. Free is my favorite number! (I'll have to install, so I'll probably do a DIY video, I have seen a few for JK vids). Now I just have to decide between, Black with gray stitches, Red with Gray stitches, or Saddle. I have see nice examples of each in this very lengthy thread.

Yep that was my concern, so far I’ve only had it hand washed and that’s what I plan to keep doing for now!

Sounds like you have a nice road trip planned. Should be fun driving your new wheels back. I'm in the SRQ, FL area as well. Not surprised you couldn't find a dealer that would work with you. I'd do the same thing as you going out of state to save some hard earned moolah. Be sure to post pictures of your Katzkins once installed.

My 2018 Sport, 2.0 T. I liked the previous generation "Willys" look, so did that. Made a Jerry Can Carrier, adapted JK Rock rails. Capable and fun in stock form, no frills !

I hate the red dash and have been scared to order the beige because everyone seems to bash it but these pictures just sold me..I think he beige looks luxury and compliments the flat grey of sting gray.. thanks for posting
