Adding style and function to your Jeep doesn't always mean you have to slap on big tires and bumpers. Sometimes the smallest mods can make the difference aesthetically and functionally. This Cowl Body Shield Decal for the '07 to '18 JK fits right into that category. This cover will complement all of your textured black accents on the Jeep by adding some extra styling, and it'll function as protection against any branches or debris that you might run into onto the trail. This is also great if you're looking for a solution to cover up existing scratches, blemishes, or even rust on your factory paint. This is pre-cut, very, very easy install, making it a one out of three wrenches in my book, and I'll get into that in just a moment. There's not much here guys, as you can tell, but what I can tell you is this is gonna hold up and provide some great protection.This is specifically cut and designed to fit from cowl to cowl, making this very easy to install, and giving it a very clean look. Like I said, this has a black rough textured finish that will match any other textured black accents that are already on the Jeep, like other decals or maybe any other armor. It's made of thick rubberized 23 mil vinyl, which is way thicker than most vinyls. For comparison, typical car vinyls or windshield decals are about 4 to 8 mil thick. So, this will last years without fading or peeling. We also do offer this in a camouflage version, and it will be a matte finish instead of the textured that you see here, so make sure you get the right one for you and your JK. At about $40, this decal is right in the middle of the road with price when it comes to hood decals. This is a unique decal, and there's really not much to compare it to on the site, but we do have other options that include just protection for the cowls.If you are looking for just the cowl decal, it will be about $15 less, but if you were looking for more of a solid cowl cover, it will be about the same price as this, or even a bit more expensive. This covers from cowl to cowl, with quality vinyl, and will give you full protection and style across your hood, making it worth the extra couple of bucks in the long run, in my personal opinion. Like I said before, this is a very easy install that anybody could do, so I'm giving this a one out of three wrenches on the difficulty meter. You're only going to need a couple of hand tools and about 20 minutes' worth of your time to get this thing installed.First, you have to clean the surface that you're adhering the decal to thoroughly, to make sure that there is nothing on the surface that will interfere with your vinyl. You'll have to remove the cowl mounting screws with a 4-millimeter Allen wrench that we will reinstall later. After everything is clean and the screws are removed, remove the backing and lightly mist the back of the material with some soapy water. Then you can place the material on the vehicle. I would recommend to start in the middle, around the wipers, and lay it flat on the vehicle to align it. Once the material is in place, you can use your hands to rub the surface and push the water out from underneath the decal. Don't rub too hard, enough to move the material, and try to use your hand as a squeegee. You can try to use a traditional squeegee, but it may be a little bit awkward because of the textured surface of the decal. Then you can install the cowl cutouts using the same method. And lastly, you can reinstall the mounting screws by poking a small hole in the material after it's dry. So, if you're looking for some added style and protection to the hood of your JK, this body shield decal is a great option to check out. This is Merideth with XT, and you can find this decal and everything else Wrangler right here at extremeterrain.com.
