Any update on this? I'm looking for something like this, but for the JL - https://www.extremeterrain.com/red-rock-4x4-taillight-guard-jk-j100582.html

I am sure makers will be producing items like that for the JL it just takes time, the JK ruled for many, many years so there are lots of parts and goodies on shelves and in time the JL will be the same.

I'd love to find these shown in the Mopar Jeep Performance catalog but I think they were prototypes or something for a photo op:

Please let us know how those are. I looked at them before but didnt pull the trigger on them.

Will do. I don't expect them to be amazing but the picture looks pretty cool and they are cheap so why not.
My main concern is that the 3m glue will fail and the piece will fall off but we will see.

If its truly the 3M material it should stay for a long long time just clean the area the adhesive will go well with alcohol (preferably 99% pure, not watered down rubbing alcohol).

How did they turn out?

I printed these up the other day just for looks but they won't protect much.

If I knew how I would, I just made them in tinkercad, they have all 50 states as templates, I added the text and built the flag. Took less than an hour from scratch. Its 137mm x 122 at the bottom and I think 119 or 120 at the top. If I remember right the backup light was 56mm off the bottom.

Thank you for sharing that site. I have just started looking into 3D printers, and now I have gone down a giant rabbit hole
