I would like to see them! I have my stock fender liners in my garage waiting for time to get to it and try it. Might just buy aftermarket liners.

Default fender flares with metalcloak liners



The metalcloak liners give them a much more finished look.

A few things to consider about these fenders:
They are not breakaway, so some hefty damage will occur if you somehow manage to scrape a tree or rock or something.
They do not flush-fit. It takes some finess to get them lined up and everything, but they DO flush fit once they're bolted up and tightened down.
There is no place to mount side markers.
They are very sturdy. They essentially become an extension of your Jeep's body.
They do not do a great job of blocking spray from your front tires. If it's raining or muddy, you're going to get some in the face/windshield.

Overall: I wish I would have just saved up and gotten flares that actually do their job, and that I don't have to worry about around trees and such. They do look pretty clean though. They're pretty narrow, so they make your stance look wider.

Is it just me or do those flares look like trimmed stock ?
Why would anybody pay for that look when you can Easily chop your own?
