It's a Rubi, I debadged everything to give it a cleaner look. I put a clearbra on so i took off the Rubi sticker and i replaced it with a black Rubicon sticker last night. I think it looks 10x better. I take a pic today of it with the 1 in body lift and black sticker. I like the debadged look but the Rubi stick needs to be on there.

The SRT8 was totaled 2 months ago after a snow storm coming down a canyon, slid on black ice and went off the side of the road into a ditch. Its in heaven now. Link to the story and pics here:

My friend tints cars and lights for a living so I had him do them. He says they were a bit harder to do but they look fine. I think they look better than stock. Ill take up close pics tonight for you.

I gather the SRT8 6.1L Hemi motor was totalled in your GC or can it still be salvaged out of the Jeep. If you can salvage the 6.1L Hemi...you think about buying the wreck and dumping the motor into your Rubi!!!

BTW...nice JK

Looks like the guy that tinted your tails filled in the holes for the screws on the taillights... weird....
Yeah, i had him do that cuz i didnt want light peeking through at night when i hot the brakes, though it would look weird. Considering its a new car i doubt the light will burn out anytime soon and if it does then ill cut a small hole for the screws then.

Yeah the buy back on the car was $10,000 so i decided no to go that way since id still have to install it, get a wiring harness and new radiator and then the warranty on the wrangler is toast too. If it was cheaper i was gonna swap in the engine, seats and rims. But that is all just wishful thinking.

Nice looking jeep, good luck with the build and keep posting the pics.
Does the windshield tint pose any problems w/ the laws out in Utah?

Looking real good RedRuby. I really like the Black Rubicon decals, nice touch!

Where about SLC are ya? I'm out way west in west valley.

Just out of curiousity, have any plans for those wheels/tires? I'm running the sad little bone stock pizza cutters and on the hunt for some new tires
