Retro "Embossed" Jeep Tailgate Badge Installed

[TheRealGinjaNinja]

I acquired some test samples 3 years ago to see what was the best match for Gator. I don't know if any new colors have been introduced since then. I think the best match is the second from the left KPMF K75531 Satin Stealth Tundra. I think the far right is the color the OP used on his. For anyone interested, Metro Restyling https://metrorestyling.com/ sells samples of most of the vinyl they sell.

Quick correction:
Just confirmed…the color that I installed is actually quite a bit different from the 3M matte military green…as mentioned earlier PixelDecals had to send another brand of vinyl due to supply constraints. Here is a quick comparison between the sample and what I installed. 3M is much greener.

For the record, I prefer the color I installed as it provides a bit more contrast.

I want to try this with my white jeep, and dont want black as everyone else. Like that you went with a different color here. Wonder if trying to color match white, matte white, or even tan would be the way to go..

Love seeing another tan Softopper with the tan Suntop. I almost did the same thing but I really wanted a year round soft top and stumbled on a great deal on a premium soft top. Looks great and certainly a different approach ;-)

Black or a dark grey closer in tone to the bumpers and black fenders would look good. However, as you mentioned I think a matte white would look killer and in my opinion would probably look best on your Jeep! I don't think tan vinyl would look so good.

Whatever you decide please update this thread with pics!

Cheers

Looks amazing. Can u send some close up pics. Plus how has the soft top held up so far? And the rear cargo area soft top as well.

Hopefully both have held out well with no leaks, discoloration, etc.

The suntop has been good. Really sits in the garage most of the time with the hard top on in the winter. Its not completely waterproof as I would say its more of a bikini top with a rear window. It is also a little noisy in the wind but didn't get a jeep for great soundproofing.

Rear cargo is a softtopper. Matches are perfect but close enough for me. The tan tops is just somehting you dont see at all which is why i went with them.
