Default help me out here guys

Ok so I broke my front fenders off wheeling about a month ago. I'm ready to purchase new ones and here is my problem.. I want the river raider ones but they're so expensive I would probably just buy the front ones now and get the back ones later. Would this look stupid? Or should I just buy 4 Xenon hi-clearance flares? I can't decide and I figured y'all would have some good input so thanks for any help.

Listen... here is my 2 cents worth..... I went with the Poison Spyder flares due to cost, but after having them start to rust between the tube frame and the top "flat" piece and seeing a set of the River Raider flares I wish I would have gone with the R.R. flares from the start....
I know they are expensive, but are real nice... I would not go with any plastic flares because of the strength issue... plastic flares will not hold up to much trail abuse!!!!!!
Bite the bullet, go with the R.R. flares and be happy you did!!!!

Or,,,, I'll sell you my P.S. flares and I will buy the R.R. ones!!!!!!

Yep, stock width,, ( they say ),, they don't look quite as wide to me, but that may just be me....
