Default Rear corner armor

Does anybody have experience with River Raider rear corner armor? I've been looking at a few things. Poison Spyder narrow front flares, RR rear armor and no rear flare. Or PS front and rear flares. Or just put my money toward something else. It seems I get a thought of doing one thing and many things come to mind. I don't take it out as much as I'd like, but I always seem to rip off the passenger side rear flare, and driver side once. The thought of no rear flare sounds nice, but the only company I've seen that cover the indent of the factory flare is RR.

feel like I've just rambled on and on. Anyhow, any and all thoughts are welcomed.

Check out the evo mfg rear builder corners. They come without flares, cover the indent you mention, are thicker steel than psc flares, and you can add the evo mfg tire carrier later if you want. I would add pics of mine but the iphone app isn't letting me

I plan to keep the OR Fab carrier, but I'll check them out. I'm not sure why I haven't looked at them yet really. I've looked at damn near everything out there so far.

After researching a little better, I may just do PS flares now and maybe look into armor in the future. From what I've read, EVO has the flares I like.... And only for a 4dr, and the river raider flares need some tweaking.
