Judging by the many billets being listed at dealerships or in transit but with stock photos, we should be seeing many more within the next several days!
There is nothing like going to the dealership and looking at the colors in person. I was deciding between Red, Billet Silver, and Granite. The Granite looked stunning under the sunlight. It was the color that "pop." Mayve it is darker when there is no sunlight. But, oh, under the sun, it looked so nice.
Of course, that is my subjective opinion. But everyone should at least go to a dealership and look at the colors, even if they are not on a JGC.
Found a billet overland in auto trader. I have to say, I have mixed feelings on how it looks. I am leaning on preferring the black trim on the bottom like the limited has versus the overland color matched trim.

This dealer is right next to me... If anybody is serious about the matter I can go down and take some real pictures. Of course that assumes I don't walk away owning it
Thank you for linking that ... I agree with you. Too much silver overall and looks better with the dark lower trim. I would like to go with Overland but the mrs is starting to like Billet Silver so maybe Limited w/Lux II will be the way we'll go?
I agree, seems to be just a wash of silver and chrome. I think I am leaning back towards maximum steele. It gives more a of a contrast to the chrome bits.
Billet Silver, is also good option for those, (like me) who want to mute the effect of the overdone hideous chrome mirrors,wheels, accents.
All a matter of taste and personal preference..one of the reasons I went Overland was to avoid the black trim and the full color look, imo, is visually less "cluttered", thus sleeker and cleaner. Zen.
The source material sucks (and so do my MS-Paint skillz), but here's a quick-and-dirty de-chromified concept... I left the tow hooks shiny because, well, they're awesome.
I can already see my Plasti-Dip budget quickly spiraling out of control. :lol:
The more I play with this, the more I think I like the idea of blacking-out that lower chrome piece... really makes the tow hooks stand out, and if this picture were from a better angle I bet it'd kinda "sporty-up" the front end a lot.
This, along with some other black trim pieces (GC lettering, handles, mirror caps, etc. like on the Trailhawk) I think would make a pretty clean ride.
I have been debating Black, Granite, and Billet myself. Once I saw billet I removed it from my list just too light for me. I was leaning towards granite but after visiting the lots a few times I think im going with black. It just looks so sharp on the overland.
However I have this odd thought that everyone who drives a nice black car with black interior seems to be the stuckup showoff type. Am I crazy lol?

I know!!! I got butterflies in my stomach when I saw those pix! If the billet looks that good in the real world I'll be one happy camper. Should know in a week or so. Hope yours gets out of the "I" black hole soon!
