Any info on how they install? Pics or .PDF of the install instructions ? They look great - hope they aren't too difficult to install

Here is a link to a page that has a pdf of the install instructions
http://www.ariesjeep.com/applicationguide_All.htm

I just installed finished installing mine today... the front are easy, no drilling or nutserts required (even though the detections say to do both ). I went and bought washers and nuts and bolted them on that way since you can access rhe back of the bolts up fron. The rear fenders are a pain the ass without a nutsert tool. The one they give you is worthless and will just cause hours of frustration without any results. I ended up just installing two bolts per fender and will install the nutserts in a couple days when I borrow the right tool from a friend. Other than that I'm happy with them. They do look a lot like the genright fenders but up close you can tell they are not the same quality but for half the price I'm fine with that. Bought them from 4wheelonline as well, only took 7 days to ship too.

The fronts you can bolt on but the rears require nutserts because you can only get to the back of two of the bolts. The nutserts are easy if you have the right tool. I ended up going to harbor freight and bought one for 20 bucks.

I ordered these a few weeks ago and my only complaint is the powder coat left something to be desired. That being said, I had my fenders paint to match Line-x'd and it came out great.

Ran some tight trails at evans creek this weekend and put a couple dents in the rear passenger side fender. I suppose that is one of the draw backs of aluminium but it did its job and I would much rather have a dent in the fender over the body
