Here's my mopar one, I got it as part of my "$500 accessories" when I bought her. It's plain, but it does it's job and certainly doesn't hurt the JK's looks. Notice my corporate billboard under the gate lock, I gotta get rid of that!!!
Because I know someone is going to ask, the rod holder can be found here:https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-write-ups-39/fishing-rod-holder-26302/

Yeah, but unbolting the carrier while the tire is mounted is less than easy. Actually, it is a huge pain. Plus, the sizes are different than a normal spider that most tire thieves carry, so most don't carry a 10mm or whatever size it was.

In any case, consider nothing on your Jeep (or any vehicle for that matter) Safe. If the want it, they'll get it. Wheel locks, door locks, etc only slow thieves down, but don't stop them from getting what they want.
It does keep the "honest man honest" though (As quoted from another JK-Forum member).

If the thinner removal doesn't work then why not go to the parts store and just pick up some black Vinyl dye? It comes in a spray can and I'm guessing for the $5 it costs you could cover all the ads up and still have some left over for touchups if ever needed.
Heck we should all swap around the tire covers so people wonder why so many jeeps are from out of town dealers...
Personally I'm thinking about getting this one:

I went to a local Canvas guy that does Boat covers, car covers, ect. gave them OD of tire and tire width. I said I want the best outdoor heaviest material they had in black. 1 day and 65 bucks later. a great LOCALY MADE tire cover. they can make any size. Most towns will have a local tent and canvas shop that can do this. I used Pauls Custom canvas in Denver...
