The "Hex" graphic has been on the Gladiator parts list for a while now, but I don't recall actually seeing it before now. It's up on Quadratec's site.
Very distinctive look, with the way it continues the black C-pillar of the top.
Real life pics:
We're going to win so much, you're going to be sick and tired of all the winning.

1st - 2020 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon
Ever reach a conclusion that seemed simultaneously obvious and a little too...
My Gladiator now has ~2,500 miles on it, including two road trips and one overlanding trip, and I feel like I've finally gotten a handle on the manual transmission. I had a 3.6 MT JK before this, and boy are they different animals. The JK shifted like a truck, and the shifter vibrated like a...
Great article.

Just finished replacing my Rubicon rock rails with the Mopar Extended Performance Rock Rails (#82215606). They ain't cheap ($720 from BAM Wholesale), but they provide a lot more protection from rocks on the trail, protect a bit from rocks that get thrown up, and they provide a nice step for...
Deep in the Settings menu, there's an option to turn the Trail Cam on when you press the Off-Road+ button. This is helpful, as it effectively gives you an analog button to turn on the camera, rather than needing to do it through the Apps screen.
Sadly, you can only turn on Off-Road+ when...
Interesting. The Jeep configurator has been updated, as evidenced by the fact that slush mats have gone from $150 to $165. Along with this, the Trail Cam has been decoupled from the 8.4" screen and LED package.
If the configurator is correct (a BIG if), then I would expect to see a pretty...
I've very nearly talked myself into getting a Diamondback SE for my hard tonneau. I love the functionality -- particularly being able to transport things on top and the way it opens -- but worry about the value a bit. It's $700 more than the Mopar cover, and $550 more than the Rugged Ridge...
Here's a weird one: Would someone who currently owns a Gladiator mind snapping a few photos of the rear bump stops? I'm trying to confirm just how different they are to the JL's stops.
I'm hoping we, the Gladiatorati, can collectively figure out who makes the Mopar hard tonneau cover that is being released any day now. There's only the one picture of it (below) that I've been able to find. Based on this shot, it looks an awful lot like a BakFlip G2. That would be great...
Here's a super boring, yet super important, topic: bolts. The JK guys might remember a guy named planman, who wrote what is still the definitive post about death wobble.
The long and short of it is this: On the JK, Jeep used slightly undersized bolts for the front track bar. The hole was...
Does anybody know if Jeep plans to offer roof bars or a rack for the Gladiator's hardtop roof? Something like the bars in this photo would be perfect (the two black bars on the tan hardtop; not the part with the RTT on it in the bed). I'd love a place to carry a couple Rotopax and some...
'(Mark Allen) was looking for a new orange space that was unique from what we have produced in the past for FCA vehicles. He didn’t want an orange color that flared too red, or yellow or just went brown,” said La Shirl Turner, Head of Advanced Color & Materials. “Punk’n, although it resembles a...
This one's a great read. If you've never done the Mojave Road, you really should.

Full review @ http://www.fourwheeler.com/news/features/1907-nena-knows-jeeps-gladiator-comparison/
As for my expectations of the Gladiator overall, I must say it surpassed them. I was concerned that driving the Gladiator would feel like settling for mediocre capabilities in between the Wrangler...
I'm curious to see which Rubicon dash color comes with Punk'n Orange. The Gladiator configurator shows the red dash for Punk'n Rubis, which is certainly bold with the orange exterior. On the JL, however, Punk'n results in a silver dash. I suspect the configurator is wrong, and us Punk'nheads...
The new Corvette looks amazing (and cheaper than some Gladiators!). But Chevy is certainly pulling out all the stops for the options sheet.
