Jeep Wrangler & Gladiator 1941 Matte Black Hood Decal (JL JT 4xe 2018–2024)
Tired of your Jeep looking like every other Wrangler in the parking lot? The factory hood is a blank canvas — and that's exactly the problem. If you want a custom-build look that honors Jeep's WWII roots without dropping four figures at a body shop, the 1941 matte black hood decal is the move. It transforms your hood in under an hour, no paint, no permanent changes, and no stripes that scream "sticker pack from a gas station."

What Is the 1941 Matte Vinyl Blackout Hood Decal?
This is a precision precut hood overlay built specifically for the Jeep Wrangler JL, Gladiator JT, and Wrangler 4xe (2018–2024). It's not a generic strip of vinyl you trim with a razor blade — it's a contour-cut kit designed to follow the OEM hood lines of your specific Jeep, with the iconic "1941" heritage graphic baked into the design.
The material is a premium matte black vinyl with pressure-sensitive adhesive. That matte finish kills glare on sunny trail days, hides minor hood scratches, and gives the front end an aggressive, factory-spec look that pairs with everything from a stock Sport to a fully built Rubicon. Because it's vehicle-specific, you don't fight bubbles, oversized panels, or weird overhang at the cowl — it lines up where it's supposed to.
Think of it as the easiest, most cost-effective way to personalize your Jeep without committing to paint or a full vinyl wrap.

Why Your Jeep Wrangler & Gladiator Deserves This Protection
Jeeps live hard lives. Whether you're crawling Moab, daily-driving through highway gravel, or just parked under the Arizona sun, the hood takes the worst of it. UV breaks down clear coat. Bug acid etches paint. Rock chips multiply every time you hit a dirt road. The hood is the single most exposed panel on the entire vehicle — and replacing or repainting it isn't cheap.
A full matte vinyl overlay shields that real estate while delivering a custom look at a fraction of the cost of a wrap or paint job. If you want to keep building out the protective side of your Jeep, browse our full PPF Kits collection for clear bra and paint protection film options, or check out our complete vehicle decals collection for matching graphics across the rest of your rig.
What's Included & Installation
The kit ships with the complete precut hood decal — every panel needed for full coverage of the JL, JT, or 4xe hood. No trimming required, no extra pieces to source.
Installation is straightforward: wash the hood thoroughly with soap and water, wipe down with isopropyl alcohol, peel the backing, align to your hood edges using the precut shape as your guide, and press from the center outward with a squeegee or microfiber cloth. Total time: about 45 minutes for a first-timer working solo. No heat gun, no special tools, no profanity required.
If you'd rather hand it to a pro, any local wrap or detail shop can install this in under 30 minutes — typically for $75–$150 depending on your area.
