I am looking for some rear quarter panel body armor with fenders for a 2012 jeep Jk, My requirements for my build is It needs to be cut to except the stock lights because these are getting add JEEP WRANGLER JK LED MILITARY TAIL LIGHT CONVERSION it must be heavy steel construction and no BS double sided tape to attach. I really like the Smitybuilt corners but I know the lights wont fit and any thing else I have seen are not cut for the stock lights. If anyone has any suggestions Thanks

 

For stock tail-light cut outs, I think AEV, MetalCloak, and Warrior Products are going to be your best bet.

 

Just an FYI, but, if you need corner armor, and intend on using it, you can say bye bye to those lights.
Having said that, those tail lights a pretty frigging cool.

 

Yeah, you're probably going to need to look at side armor like what metalcloak has. If you're running those taillights, there is no need for armor on that back corner. They'll rip out of the sheet metal just like the crappy stock lights.

Your other option is to buy something like the poison Spyder corners and do your own fab work to the taillight area.

 

+1 this.

 

Im not sure why people would pay so much for these lights. I built my own (non LED using the factory housings). Cost me $7 in spray paint. Ill post a picture in the morning. This is my first prototype. Im going to build an LED panel and recess them into the corners. Ill still have less then $100 invested and it will look a hell of alot better then those.

 

Pics or it didn't happen

 

Warrior corners here.




Exactly, the reason for corners is to provide protection. Those military lights will crack just the same as stock lights if you hit or roll on the corners -- frenched lights are necessary.

 

Thank you for the response I like the lights for the look and reliability I am planing on building a cage with round stock to protect the lights

 

I have the aev corner armor. I like them a lot
