Smittybilt XRC fender flares..... PICS Please
#111
Hers mine. Fitment isn't the absolute best and the spy welds on the edge is kinda cheap. But overall for the price you can't beat em. I had cut fenders and these are way better than cut stockers. I was able to use my fender liners and filled the gap with the excess from when I cut the stockers. Turned out great. I can add a pic with the finished liners later today if anyone wants

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.
