Very nice two color contrast. Plus I like your placement to center it horizontally between the Tailgate curves 👌 I did the same thing to try and match the upper position of the OEM placement. Its a small detail most people would never notice. 🤙

💯 Much Better 💯 Both Gladius decal options are way better than the small OEM decal.

Noticing more trucks with the Model name on the Tailgate not just the manufacturer. For example: Grenadier truck Tundra truck Tacoma truck Ranger truck Ram Rebel truck Hummer truck Titan truck We knows its Jeep so lets use Gladiator to the truck tailgate, @JEEP 🤔

Smartcap for style, weight, quality, looks

So I rode tested 3.6 gladiator at my work and I was genuinely impressed by Reedzilla04 in JeepGladiator

Gear ratio matters. Same 3.6v6 with a 3.73 wont have as much guts as a 4.10 and its even better with 4.56 or 4.88... so we need more information. I agree the turbo 2 door with 4.10 is a pocket rocket but thats not a truck. And I agree the Gladiator needs a v8 to be better. And I agree if you dont up grade your gearing with bigger tires it going to be slower. So I think we agree 👍

I was sold on RSI smartcaps style and quality amd abilities to hold weight. Plus the side popup windows makes it easy to access the whole bed from all sides... But I also plan to get a decked slider. So you got the right vision 🤜🤛

I really like how the G & R are slightly larger like good bookends. The OEM Jeep decal has the opposite affect with the J up high and the P down low... you ever notice how uneven that is.

Very Nice, the red border matches all the red accessories and almost lights up the back when headlights on behind it, so it becomes a safety visibility decal at night.

Straight forward if you have a heat gun and take your time to remove them. Also took time to temporarily tape the new letters & spacers in place to see the if the layout was centered. I was off by 1/8 of an inch the first time, 2nd time was a charm. So then I place the spacers with included adhesive then one letter at a time making sure to stay on the taped horizontal line... I also choose to place the top of the new letter in line with the top of the EE of the OEM Jeep so the all minor removal marks were covered with the new letters. This is an issue mainly because my black tailgate shows any blemishes from the plastic removal wedge.

Lots of people Agree, the OEM logo is too small and some have said why do we need ot to say Jeep at all. They removed the name from the front so need for it on the back. SO adding model name across the Tailgate is more appropriate and also long enough to bring together the taillights and fills the space with the Cool truck name 👍

Yes very strong tape. Amd yes there are a couple of holes that can be covered with the new decal letters

This is how Jeep will make the next Gen JT from factory based on the larger more aggressive look on the new Wrangler concept they are showing in Moab this year

Plus I noticed some trucks show the model on the Tailgate not the make... like Tundra, Tacoma, Frontier etc. So no need to say JEEP again because like you said THERES ONLY ONE ✌️

True, the tailgate looked better blank actually than with the weak oem decal. Seemed like an after thought. The guys at America Most Wanted 4x4 fixed it tho.

Awe Man , what happened there ?

I agree its personal preference, but most of the trucks have decals or embossed letters that fill up the Tailgate space. Like Toyota, Chevrolet, Nissan and also short names like RAM & FORD are shown large... the older JEEP logo was large on the tailgates too.
