Jeep_® Performance Parts Marks the Spot with New Custom Hood Decals 

June 25, 2014 , Auburn Hills, Mich. -  Mopar’s Jeep_® Performance Parts is giving deeper meaning to the term “road map.” With the introduction of new Jeep Custom Hood Decals, owners can personalize the hoods of their Jeep vehicles with pre-configured map decals of popular trails or create their own map graphics using an online customizable tool.
 
Off-road lovers can select from maps of iconic trails such as Hell’s Revenge, Poison Spider and the Rubicon Trail, or custom create their own topographical elevation or street level graphics. Owners also can select from two border colors on hood decals and identify a point of interest to mark a special spot on a much-beloved route, road or trail.
 
“Mopar’s new Jeep Custom Hood Decals allow owners to literally place their imprint on a vehicle and display the geography of their Jeep passion for the entire world to see,” said Pietro Gorlier, President and CEO of Mopar, Chrysler Group LLC’s service, parts and customer-care brand. “Jeep Custom Hood Decals are just the latest in a portfolio of Jeep Performance Parts products that help Jeep vehicle owners to personalize their rides for the street and trail.”
 
Jeep Custom Hood Decals are designed to exactly fit specific hood dimensions of 2007-2015 Jeep Wranglers, 2014-2015 Jeep Cherokees and 2011-2015 Jeep Grand Cherokees. Durably produced with premium 3M films, the decals measure up to Mopar’s engineering quality standards for superior graphic performance and include a three-year warranty to guard against fading or manufacturer defect.
 
"The Jeep brand is teaming with Mopar to help owners personalize their vehicles in a way that supports their passion for off-road and on-road fun,” said Mike Manley, President and CEO — Jeep Brand, Chrysler Group LLC.  “We know Jeep owners appreciate new ways to make their vehicles unique, and these hood decals are just the latest offering to help them accomplish that."
 
Creating a one-of-a-kind Jeep Custom Hood Decal is as easy as the click of a mouse. Owners can visit the online map tool at www.mopar.com/jeephoods to select a decal, with the power to view and choose maps of a favorite trail or even a particular zip code. Once a customer chooses a hood decal design, a part number and unique design code is generated, which the customer then takes to their Jeep dealership for ordering. Decals will ship directly to the dealer, with customers having the option of dealership or independent installation.

Currently available for purchase in the U.S market, Jeep Custom Hood Decals have a starting U.S. Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $295, plus installation.
