Got mine 5 days ago. Looking at putting a 2” lift and 35s on it soon. Maybe a passive entry kit too.

I think if there were more historical easter eggs baked in (or unique aspects in general) beyond a few decals, it would be harder to justify but I'm about 80% sure I'll be doing the same thing when I take delivery. The package itself is a great value, visually it hits the nail on the head for me.

I'm familiar with the Willys history being a huge WWII tank fanatic. However, if you remove the $3 worth of decals, this could easily pass as Jeep's version of Ford or Ram's Sport Appearance Package coupled with the off-road package. Apples and oranges, I know, but at least with Ram's "built to serve" edition the changes are truly exclusive and comprehensive.

Love the Willys as a package option though.

Yeah, I love the history and the package was definitely the sweet spot for me. Not opposed to getting some interior willys swag somewhere.

My thing is, I just hate the way stickers look on cars. So much cleaner to me now.

Anyone who cares, knows the differences. No stickers needed. To those who don't, stickers are meaningless. So I say, just take em off!

Aw man, so close. Iblike that look better too. Now I just need a key hole that's not chrome. I don't care for the covers I seen for them
Key hole covers came in and look amazing! Have the same texture as the door handles!

I am SO on the fence about doing the same. If it were 1% less subtle, I'd 100% remove them. As it stands, you can just notice them on sarge and black Willys when the light hits them. I'll drive it a few weeks and then decide.

I may be jaded but I think the Willys wheels are the best looking factory wheel Jeep offers!
I agree with you. But I needed a better offset for fatter tires. I went with Morphic wheels from quadratech. Copy of the Willys wheel. This is what Jeep should have done with that wheel. 17x8.5 with +10 Offset. Perfect with 285/75/17 also marked 34 x 11.5.
