I’m terribly sorry for your loss. But I think that plate is AWESOME!
thanks. I may have to look into seeing if it’s available. I had forgotten all about that plate until seeing your post.

It's your Jeep, do what you like.

Army Infantry Vet
Army Brat here. I wanted the big star graphic any my Gobi JT. My wife liked the neutral tan, but she thought adding the star would make it look too “Army.” I agreed. To each our own, I guess. So I replaced the antenna with a shorter one and installed grab handles to help them climb in. (Better bang for the buck anyway.)

I can see her POV. I’ve also thought about the gladiator graphic. If I went with that, it would be something smaller. Maybe a small on under the side mirrors.

Hey all,

I just received my gator green JT and saw this “distressed star” decal on many jeeps. I think it would look great on my JT but am a bit wary to do it since I’m not a vet.

Any vets out there that can give an opinion on this? While I like the graphic, I don’t want to offend the men and women that have served our country. I don’t really see it as stolen valor, but it makes me uncomfortable enough to ask some vets on here lol.
no problem with non vet having star cold war vet here gator sport

I agree it's almost as big as the old 3/4 ton. Almost 3 times the size of a M151A2 willy. Although I will admit if they had a 2 door model I would've bought one instead of my 23 JLR.

I might be a little biased but the stars should be for vets. If u want to show ur patriotism display the flag. I drove a M151A2 jeep in Germany before they camaflaged them and covered the stars.

I’ll offer an alternative opinion. I think it’s one of the stupidest things that they put on a jeep.
I would nominate the 2014 Jeep Wrangler Dragon edition as the final level boss for worst decal set on a Jeep.
