Default JK Inner Fender options

Hey members,
Looking to put on flat fenders this spring and wanted to clean things up by installing inner fenders. All my looking has shown different companies to be similar and prices basically reflecting name of Manufacturer. Curious if anyone has anything that they recommend? I am thinking I want to do either Poison Spyder flat fenders, but they don't offer rear liners. I also like Metalcloak fenders but I don't like that their inner fenders don't really join and there appears to be "gaps". Also, if anyone is running or has info on the Rough Country inner fenders that would be helpful too. I'm leaning towards those only because they offer front and rear and a pretty good price, around $350 for a set of all 4, and they would all match as well.

I'm running factory fender liners front and rear with my Aries aluminum fenders. Why pay $350 when you can trim and reuse the factory liners?

For 200, you can look pretty slick with the Ace offerings.

I'm running the Ace liners as well and couldn't be happier. 1-piece and a decent price....$199 for powder coated black or $175 for bare aluminum. I ordered mine bare and powder coated anthracite to match my other items. I do think they overcharge for the amber LED marker light though....

Liners look good! Your tire is rubbing your swaybar, body mount, and fender liner. Might want to put a washer under your steering stop.

Thanks for all the info so far. I was seriously considering Ace but was curious if rear fender liners are truly needed as I havent seen Ace offer these? This was my main reason going with RC as they were about $150 cheaper than a front and rear set of DV8s

What Biginboca said. Ditch the rear liners, sand and paint the rear inner fender. Trip up the front liners to work with your choice of flat fender and you're good.

I don't run liners in the rear. Doesn't bother me seeing the tub at all. I would say there are some spaces that mud can get up there and be a pain to clean, but I steer clear of mud myself. Different situation in the front as I hate seeing in the engine from the side. $175-$200 seemed a lot more acceptable for me considering how much they change the appearance of the jeep, and considering how prominently they stand out when fenderless.
