JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Nice Jeep. Is that the same as last year's steel blue, or the one that apparently replaces it this model year?

That's the Steel Blue that was an optional color for the '07 and '08 models. Deep Water Blue is the color for '09 models. I still haven't seen any pictures of it.

Edit: If the Deep Water Blue for the 2009 JK is the same as the Deep Water Blue for the 2009 Challenger, this is approximately what it will look like.

Thanks for the welcome and compliments everyone.

No, like Ryno said mine's an '08 steel blue. The new for '09 deep water blue is also on the Dodge Journey. No offense to anyone who gets one, but lets just say when I saw they were discontinuing steel blue for deep water blue it lit a big fire under my butt to find a steel blue while I still could. I think it looks pretty good on the Challenger though, kind of an old school muscle car color. I noticed on the Dodge website that for the Challenger they call it "Deep Water Blue Pearl", but for the Journey it's just called "Deep Water Blue". Could be just an editor's oversight or I suppose they maybe wanted to give the Challenger a slightly unique look with pearl paint??

Here's an earlier thread with a pic of a JK in what some were speculating might be the new for '09 deep water blue: https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-talk-26/2009-color-confirmation-47922/
