Originally I had purchased them through this guy on Etsy - https://www.etsy.com/shop/ThePaddockFactory?ref=l2-shopheader-name

At the time they didn't offer an Arizona flag, so I sent a direct message asking if they can do an Arizona blackout flag, and then a few hours later he said it's all ready to go for both USA and Arizona.

But I did one of the decals myself and it came out bad due to the lack of experience in big decals like that. So I just went to a reputable auto performance vinyl wrap shop and had them do it for me along with the hood blackout.

Thank you for the info.

Was thinking about these, but am unsure of how the main Lange mirror mount “touches” the body paint. Is it bare black metal on the body paint? If so, that will scratch and mar it, visible upon removal. Can you please comment on whether there is a protective surface behind the mount?
They provide a protective film to go under the mounts.
Thank you. Have you removed the mount/mirror (say, when you reinstall the doors) to see if there was any damage to the paint underneath? I'd be curious to see if it does indeed protect it fully.

I appreciate the feedback.

I’ll leave the mount on all summer. If for some reason it did scratch underneath I guess I’ll just leave the mount on all the time. Mirrors easily remove from the mount so no reason to take it off

Ah, I didn't know the mirrors were removable from the mount. I guess the only negative aspect of leaving the mount on (aside from visual) would be the potential wind/noise/whistling caused by the mount. The whole Jeep itself is a brick, so no worries there I guess. LOL. Visually, the black accents throughout the vehicle should match up.

If you do happen to remove it for some reason, please post back how it looks underneath.

thanks.

I replaced my Rubicon decals with a simple outlined version. Grabbed the vectors out of the Wrangler manual PDF so it's clean and accurate.

Great work! I would like to do the same... Do you have a link to the PDF that has the Rubicon logo you used? Much appreciated!

Ditto. I will likely leave mine on indefinitely.

Extra Back-Up Lights.

They appear to be very well made, quite bright, and waterproof. I haven't wired them yet, but will run them to an aux switch. I fabricated a bracket from a piece of angle iron and used the original bumper bolt to attach them.

Yes, that's a JKR wheel and spare tire, I'm running 37s and will use that instead of a heavy 37 and all the problems it brings. The differentials are open anyway, there's no reason not to run a donut spare for moderate trails and street use.

Can these be wired into the trailer connection so they turn automatically on when you put it in reverse?
