I added some MCE flat fenders to the JK and trimmed the factory liners (front and rear). While it is functional, I am thinking of going to a more "professional look". Any recommendations?
I absolutely love the ones I picked up from Ace Engineering. Plus they usually have some discounts going on- Got mine for 30% off during the holidays- Right now they are 15% off I believe. I didn't go with the rears, just stuck with the Front with the inserts.. Fishbone makes soem that look identical as well.
I plan on adding some flat fenders later and the ace engineering fender liners are compatible with most aftermarket fender flares. I was able to maintain the stock fenders with a little trimming of the stock liner and added the insert for better stability. Super easy!
I have had the Ace inner liners for years now and been happy. Of course, these days everyone seems to have a liner and the prices are very reasonable. I think it comes down to personal preference on looks. I powder coated anthracite to match my jeep's color scheme. Will add a snapshot of mine when I get home.
I kind of like the Nemesis liners better than mine based on design, but I just don't value inner liners enough to spend so much on em. Also, I'm not a huge Ace fan myself, but they were an affordable option back when I bought mine, and before everyone else came out with some.

I'm curious what more you could want from fender liners. I did MCE flats this past month and reused the fronts, looks factory where I cut them and tucked it behind the lip. 3 bolts hold each in. My dilemma is the stupid marker light. I want more than they supply. For the rears I just ddid a speckled satin black in the fender well so I could see if you wanted something different back there.
I definetly don't like the back liners. I don't think they fit well after cutting. The fronts are ok, but would like something a bit more "professional looking". Vanity I guess.

I get this....pretty much why I did it; however, that area on mine is very prevalent without flares. That front wheel well is an area that draws attention in general on lifted JKs. I don't think it's crazy to what it to look nice. Now, back in the day when the only options were like $450.....no thanks. I've got nothing in the rear wells, and have never been bothered by it.
