SWEET!!!! I too prefer the narrow look too and it helps with tire clearance. No doubt gonna be another great JK product from SW and can't wait to see more!

It appears from the pics that they mount to the fenders which are VERY weak and flimsy. Am I wrong? I'd like to see some tube fenders that mount to the inner structure so that they are useful and not just pretty. I'd also like to see some that are higher. perhaps at the hood line.

Well, yet another item to drool over for several more months. Maybe they'll be ready to order when the Rear/Tire carriers ship! What will I do when I'm not waiting for a Shrockworks part? Hard to imagine the day. Of course, this is on my short list now.
- LED marker lights cleanly integrated in
- Strong supporting structure so the fender+body panels don't get ripped off on the trail
- Textured black powdercoat (one easy one)

limb risers stretch a cable from the the fender to the corners of the roof, it moves tree branches out of the way. i wheel in dense wooded areas, so for me that would be great, but probably not going to happen
X a billion on making them strong and supportive. I dont want to hit a tree with them, and bend the sheet metal they are attached to.

LOVE EM!! But.... I'd be tempted to move the front turn signals to atop the fender facing formard like old willy's jeeps, then the fogs moved to where the turn signals used to be! Any Questions?

The limb riser can be done with a tab, we do it for some of the 4runner guys and I don't see any issue in adding the tab to the top if it was mentioned when ordering. As for the mounting, there is none in the picture, I just had the tube trimmed to fit the Jeep. When the stock fender off the outer sheet metal is easily moved by finger, solid mounting to sub structure is a no brainer, as will a marker light since we are eliminating the mounting of the original.... you'll see when we let you.
