Default bolt on flat fender?

i'm looking for a set of flat fenders that just bolt on instead of having to drill into my (new to me) jeep. does anyone have any suggestions? i guess if i have to i'll get the ones that i have to drill the body but i'd prefer to not have to. i dont plan on doing any hardcore rock crawling more just for the look i guess. thanks in advance

The poison spyder flares are not what you are looking for. They absolutely require drilling!! I know, because I installed both my front and rears. They are a very nice product thou

Bushwacker flat fender flares look great, and require absolutely zero drilling. They mount using the factory holes that the plastic fender flare clips go into.

The PSC flairs look great, but will require drilling. Doing it all over again I would with the aluminum flairs.
