What Is the Best Full-Body Decal Kit for the Jeep Gladiator JT?
Classic racing-stripe styling that covers the full body of your 2020+ Gladiator in one coordinated kit.
The Retro Scrambler Body Stripe Kit is the most complete option available for the Gladiator JT. Inspired by the vintage Jeep Scrambler, this kit wraps classic two-tone racing stripes across the hood, doors, and bedsides in a single design system. Everything lines up because it was engineered specifically for the 2020 and newer JT body.
At $179.99, it is the most premium kit on this list, but it is also the one that turns the most heads. It comes in a full range of colors, so whether your rig is Granite Crystal, Sting Gray, or a custom repaint, you can find a stripe that works. Application takes roughly two hours for a first-timer, and all pieces arrive pre-cut and pre-spaced. No measuring required.
Best for: Gladiator owners who want a show-ready exterior transformation with a vintage-meets-modern aesthetic.
Clean solid blackout panel that fills the entire JT tailgate. 63 color options.
Which Hood Decal Looks Best on a Gladiator Rubicon?
Engineered for the Gladiator and Wrangler Rubicon power-dome hood, with a bold warrior graphic that owns the front end.
The Rubicon power-dome hood has its own unique contour, and most hood decals are not cut to fit it properly. The Spartan Helmet Hood Decal is one of the few designs engineered specifically for that raised center section. The graphic centers a detailed warrior helmet in a blacked-out field that fills the dome cleanly, with no awkward gaps or overlapping edges.
At $99.99, this is the sweet spot for Rubicon owners who want a bold, purposeful look without going over the top. It is available in matte black, gloss black, white, matte white, and several accent colors. The matte black on a dark body color is especially clean.

Best for: Gladiator Rubicon owners who want a graphic that was built to work with the power-dome contour.
Stars and stripes graphic spans the full JT tailgate width. Bold and trail-ready.
What Is the Best Bedside Decal for the Jeep Gladiator JT?
A best-seller that honors the original 1941 Jeep with clean, classic lettering sized for the Gladiator's truck bed panels.
The bedside panels on the Gladiator JT are one of the first things people notice when the truck is parked. A clean graphic here adds a lot of visual interest without committing to a full body kit. The 1941 Bedside Graphic Decal Set is our most popular bedside option, and it is easy to see why.
At $39.99 for the set, this is the most affordable featured pick on this list. It pays tribute to the 1941 origin of the Jeep brand with bold, purpose-built lettering sized for the JT bed panels. Installation is straightforward: apply one piece per side, squeegee out air bubbles, and peel the transfer tape. Most customers finish in under 30 minutes.
The 1941 graphic pairs especially well with the Retro Scrambler body stripe kit if you want to stack a heritage look across multiple panels.
Best for: Owners who want a subtle, heritage-inspired graphic that works on any trim level and any paint color.
How Do You Choose the Right Tailgate Decal for the Gladiator JT?
A two-layer bordered blackout that fills the recessed center of the Gladiator tailgate for a factory-upgrade look.
The Gladiator tailgate has a large recessed center section that is almost asking for a graphic. Choosing the right one comes down to two decisions: do you want a full blackout or a bordered design, and how much of the gate do you want to cover?
The JT Bordered Blackout Tailgate Graphic is the upgrade pick here. At $79.99, it uses a two-layer construction with a contrasting border that frames the recessed section cleanly. It looks much more intentional than a simple solid fill, and the bordered edge adds depth that reads well from a distance. It is engineered for 2020 and newer Gladiator JT models and comes in 63 color variants.

Best for: Owners who want the most polished, finished tailgate look with a premium two-layer graphic.
How Do Jeep Gladiator Decals Hold Up Outdoors?
Every decal in the Jeep Gladiator collection is cut from outdoor-rated vinyl that is engineered to handle UV exposure, car washes, rain, and road grime. The typical rated lifespan is 5 to 7 years depending on climate and maintenance.
A few tips that make a real difference:
- Clean the panel with isopropyl alcohol before application. Any wax or polish residue will reduce adhesion.
- Apply in temperatures between 60 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit. Cold vinyl stretches and lifts; hot panels cause bubbles before you can squeegee them out.
- Use a felt squeegee or a credit card wrapped in a soft cloth to eliminate air bubbles in long, overlapping strokes from center to edge.
- If an edge starts to lift after a few months, a quick pass with a heat gun on low and a firm press will re-set the adhesive.
Frequently Asked Questions About Jeep Gladiator Decals
Are Jeep Gladiator decals removable?
Yes. Vinyl decals come off cleanly with heat (a heat gun or hair dryer on medium) and a plastic trim removal tool. Work slowly from one edge, keep the vinyl at roughly a 45-degree angle, and use adhesive remover for any leftover residue. Most panels show no damage or ghost marks when removed properly.
Will a Wrangler JL decal fit the Gladiator JT?
Sometimes, but not always. The hood and fender proportions are very similar between the JL and JT, so hood decals listed as fitting both will typically work. Bedside and tailgate graphics are unique to the JT because the truck bed and gate are entirely different dimensions from the Wrangler. Always check the product fitment notes before ordering.
How many colors do Jeep Gladiator decals come in?
Most kits at Jeep Decal Store are available in 63 color options, including gloss, matte, metallic, and chrome finishes. You select your color at checkout, and the decal is cut to order in that color. There is no extra charge for color selection.
Can I install Jeep Gladiator decals myself?
Absolutely. Every kit includes basic application instructions. A clean panel, a squeegee, and a warm day are all you need for most designs. Larger kits like the Retro Scrambler body stripe benefit from a second set of hands when positioning the longer pieces.
Do Jeep Gladiator decals void the factory warranty?
No. Vinyl decals are an external, non-permanent modification. They do not affect any mechanical systems and do not void the Jeep factory warranty. Dealers can and do add vinyl graphics from the factory, so aftermarket decals carry no warranty concern.
