Looks like I'm in the "I have parts & no truck to put them on" club now...

Received the N-FAB Predator Pro steps for my truck today...

Color is great, just wish they would have left the red dash. My wife is really disappointed in not having the red dash. Does anyone know if they are going to have grey dashes in the Rubicon colors being produced now or in the future?

switch out the dash, I see people that want to trade or you can just buy it online for about $300 bucks

I will be picking mine up today. My lift, wheels and tires have been ordered. I"m doing a 4" lift, 20x12's and 37x1250r20's tires. Of course, the lift and wheels wont be available until the end of this month, soooo, I will be driving it factory for a few weeks. Just long enough to get used to the way it drives and gas mileage and then have to do it all over again in a few weeks. Anyway, I have black leather, so I will confirm the theory of the red dash this afternoon.
Ah sweet, glad to hear you are doing a 4" lift with the 37s. I will be following your build because that is what I intended to do.

Edit: Looks like the higher priced one has $195 for Hydro Blue on the window sticker; The lower priced one doesn't. Up-charging SOME for Hydro Blue paint, but not all??? That's odd.
It's not just Hydro Blue or Gladiators. I just saw a paint upcharge on a 2 door Wrangler in Silver Billet.
So what's next an extra charge for brakes?

I got my window sticker earlier this week, and according to that one, I have the $195 up-charge for Hydro Blue on mine...

If you ordered your gladiator you should have an agreed upon price before the order was placed. That will lock in your price, so even if the window sticker says one thing they shouldnt be able to charge you for it. Just like the new uptick in price for the 8.4" and tow package.

aren't those vents on the hood non-functional?

I really don't care, functional or not... The lines and look of that hood is what I love! I just need to watch for one to hit a local junkyard...

I've got the Tread Lightly / supplier pricing, so my deal shouldn't be affected. Others have said the online "window sticker" CAN be different than the physical "window sticker"...
