I dont know if this the right area to most this but here I go. I was wondering what decal I should get. Which would look the best on my 03" cactus green Liberty Renegade. Any pics of others decals would help also.

Putting a Rubican sticker on your KJ is kinda cheesy in my opinion,I'd say don't do it.

The way I figured it was. If I go with the Moabs (wheels) which are the wheels Rubicons come with then why not run the hood decal also. It will basically be a Rubigade. If there was a Rubigade decal I would run that. I knew this post was gonna have some opinions saying dont do it. Thats what I was looking for. I appreciate everyones opinions to each his own you know.

But Tom, the chrome ones are supposed to add like 90 H.P. :lol:

Just buy a RUBICON, they come with the decal aready on, since they are a RUBICON.

Man I forgot about the 90 extra horse power that the chrome ones provide , but remember KJ04, ..... ONLY, and I can not stress this point enough...only if they are stuck on with..........................PEANUT BUTTER! :roll:

But seriously I think if you put them on Even with the Moab wheels you are going to take more flack with having them.

Also easy to make up decals, you can call it anything you want to, do you think someone had KILIMANJARO EDITION decals just waiting to be sold.

Think outside the box and make it your own! Do not follow, but become a leader !

I will argue the point some though as I only have 17 more posts to make 5000 :lol: :lol: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

I thought the peanut butter thing was started in Michigan by Dr Kellogg, in 1890.

I will have to agree with tj...not so great of an idea. There is a TJ owner I know in W.V. that has a TJ Sport and put Rubicon stickers on his Jeep....endless crap he is given. Same way with a JK owner in the same club...both are affectionately referred to as "posers". Plus, and let's be a little realistic here, most Jeep offroaders are well aware that there has never been a Rubicon edition KJ :wink: . On the other hand, there is another guy in the W.V. club that has a completely built TJ 'con that he replaced the hood decal with "Boobicon"...now that's funny :lol: .

I'll sell em to you, but I might laugh later.

I can make a decal that says anything in the same style.

I have made a lot of different ones in the past like:

drazicon
liberator
bruticus
etc.

I have to agree with everyone here, we own KJ's placing a Rubicon decal will be a real No No. Just do what you can to think how the Rubicon got its name and the engenieering that whent with it, never mind the endless modification available, lets keep it "real" modified KJ ownwers have proven what our Jeeps are capable of doing I dont think I would need a rubicon decal. But then it is your KJ and you have the right to do with it what ever you want.

We modify our KJ's to do what a Jeep was built and designed to do!!!!
Good luck with you decision.

nosnorb, i think you should make your own special edition. tommud, myself, tjkj, and the others can tell you that making your own edition is the most fun because its yours. coming up with the theme, name, colors, materials, layouts, and designs is half the fun and when you see the end result and know that it was all custom done its like the best feeling in the world and you'll just want to show it off all the time. and youll love it when people ask you about it... and when people tell you they thought you were a state trooper :lol:
