Cold air intake makes it a Rubic?

The Mopar cold air intake looks pretty cool but I’m not sure how it will interact with the Rubicon badging. Do we end up with Rubic or Rubico? On the gravity concept the font on the graphic is noticeably smaller to accommodate the cold air intake. Any guesses?

I think I have found the answer in one of the first pics we all saw. It’s obvious the truck is a Rubicon but yet no stickers this is probably because of the cold air intake. I do like the Mopar black grill though might get that, it’s only a couple hundred bucks.

THAT'S IT! Get the cold air intake, get a Rubicon sticker delete! at least on one side.

I like the jeep Rubico Personally.

Thats what they make plastidip for, and its only a couple bucks...

I hate chrome, so I blacked out my Colorado grill and bowties with it, now everyone is surprised that I got a "black tie edition" Colorado.

Has there been any news on a release date from Rugged Ridge. I LOVE this thing and have scoured the internet but can't find any news.
I just check their website monthly. I'm also waiting for their replacement fenders with thin LED lights shown on the same Quadratec SEMA video.

It remembers me that I have a question since I saw the Mopar JT first pictures... it seems they kept the same antenna plastic base as on my 2011 JK, but without the antenna... when did it happen on the Jeeps? And is it like that curious shark fin on some pickup truck? Or a vestige to put your CB whip antenna there?

I don’t think they put antennas on any show trucks.

Thank you... I think you are right... they are probably removing the antennas in the shows and even in the photo shoots and promotional videos... in reality, there’s an antenna:
