Where’s a good place to look up part numbers?
Looking for the rear sliders, between the rear wheels and bumper.

I wish I could find one. They all suck. Forums are usually the best bet.

Apparently the clutch can blow up and punch holes into the transmission in the JL/JT. :wtf:

Wifey likes the new Chief Blue color, and is digging the islander trim level with the white roof.

Six months to go on the Renegade lease. These things are starting to hit our area, so it’s time to start kicking some tires.

That is a unique and :neat: paint scheme.

That's not good. That's a quick way to lose a foot.

Very similar. Chief blue is BRIGHT.

The Jeep Ram dealer by my house has a chief blue Sahara with painted top sitting out front. I like bright colors, but that's honestly too much with the painted roof. Breaking it up with a white roof like this islander is :notbad: I still prefer the contrast between bright and black.

Really? Glad you like it.

I’d love if they did an actual purple like they had on a few of the JK editions, but this one still looks pretty cool. At least on the online configurator. Maybe in person it’s not as cool.

Yea, curious to see what you think when you see one IRL.

Purple would be :jimp: I want a purple 392.

Get it in soft top and it's no longer Porta-Potty spec :doe:

It is classy without being a shade of despair. This is a big skittles forum, yourself included, but I prefer something a wee bit more toned down.

It's funny, I don't care for the color on my Corvette all that much as it is so old man spec. On a :jeep: I think it is pretty cool, I don't recall them ever being sold in such a color. I dig the uniqueness, although I still prefer some other :jeep: colors like yours and mine for example.

Yea, I love skittles for a Jeep. Just goes well to me.

But I get it, not everyone wants to be cool.

There's been similar colors over the years, but it's never been a staple. It is indeed unique for a wrangler.

I think the only non-skittles color I like is Sarge Green. Sarge Green Mojave with the whorange accents would look :megusta:
