It has been rough; I’ve been trying to get some Delmonico Red for my 2022 RAM 5500; some Hydro Blue for the 2022 Willys XR, and some Sting Gray for my daughter’s 2020 Jeep Renegade.

First inquiry was March 26th...no updates from Chrysler as of May 12th, then on May 19th, was told the day was moved up to June 21st, and subject to change.

I checked in again June 6th, no new info but was still shooting for June 21st. Checked in this past Monday, June 26th....and only a few containers of touch up paint arrived (none in the paint code I needed).

My parts guy is great at his job with many years under his belt.

It’s batschitttttttttt crazy.......

Thanks for the link.....but for $38.00........it should come with a certificate to Outback Steakhouse and a handjob.

I need to check with my dealer again. Last time was in March and he said May/June, bet it's still unobtanium (also Earl grey).

Do you have a link for the $38 steak and handjob deal? Seems reasonable. Do I need a coupon? ?

If anyone need granite crystal let me know. I bought some spray and touch up for my JK to fix the hinges then ended up selling it. Free to anyone, just cover the shipping.

@marktgorman, I'll be glad to take you up on that paint. I'll send you a PM

I need ocean blue. Searched and searched and bought it on JEGs. Then the delays started. I finally canceled after 3 months. The idea being to paint it before the snow flew. Ima try my uncles body shop and see if I can even order the paint as a qt and then go that route

There are lots of vendors on the Internet selling color code matched touch up paint, paint pens, or qt cans, etc..

Shop with your JL's paint color code!

No reason you must go with Mopar touch-up paint.
