No offense to anyone with this color Jeep, OR Chrysler for that matter, but I think GM's name for this color was so much better..... Purple Haze

Back about 15 years ago, I was searching for f-body camaros. I found a picture of a purple haze on online that had limo tint and custom 17 or 18" wheels - almost looked like callaway or foose wheels, anyway... the guy had so much polish on it, the paint reflected about the same amount as the window tint... so it looked like the car was all the same material on every surface, just a different color between the paint and windows... I had that picture somewhere, I'll have to see if I can find it one day.

maybe they made it an option for the TJ because they wanted to make up because they felt bad for giving them a crappy rear axle along with a LP front axle

On my lunch break I decided on a location and went ahead and mounted the manifold on.
