Thought about doing the smittybilt xrc fenders and getting them painted but haven't done to much research on them yet but very reasonably priced

Those are basically trimmed stock fenders. I say trim them see if you like them. If you don't like the trimmed you can just take them off and your out $0 . Or you can get these Bare Steel For $750 and have them painted whatever you want. 37's is going to look sick on your Jeep.

So clean... Do it right and go aftermarket or leave it alone. Your Rubi looks outstanding!

 

I agree with previous comments, the Jeep looks awesome as is! I cut my painted flares and they do great - I tend to bounce off of trees and rocks a lot, so they just pop back into shape... Painters tape and some black door trim did the trick on mine...

 

I've always been a fan of the trimmed painted fenders. If I had a box big enough or you was close enough of hook you up with some regular black ones for you to trim and see if you liked. I have a set I need to get rid of.

 

Yes u can

 

I still had room to flex but I felt the stockers look bulky especially against a stubby front. If I could find local silver ones I would put em on my Rubi and chop those.

 

All the jeeps look great. I enjoy the look of the painted fender cut. I plan to do mine on my 15 JKU Rubicon this spring. Could any of you supply more of a step by step or close up of how exactly to do it. I want to understand the procedure a little more to help my confidence and maybe avoid a major catastrophe. Im sure there is a video or article somewhere that I haven't found.

 

I just did mine and it was really easy! Just make sure you use painters tape to tape off what your keeping on so it doesn’t scratch the paint. Start the ends using a dremmel and then use a hand jigsaw with a medal cutting blade for a smoother line. My paint didn’t chip at all!

 

You sure can, but i rather buy something that will look better than oem.
