Wheel well liner after cut fender flare mod??
WHat have you all done a far as wheel well liners after you've trimmed up those flares? I have tried reusing the stock liners but the fitment is a bit jacked up. Any creative ideas out there?

I trimmed the front liners in far enough to be flush with the steel fender and removed the rear liners completely. And painted inside black undercoating

As for the rears, just yank them out and paint the wheel well black. There isn't anything back there to protect, and the liners actually trap more mud than just removing them.

It's hard to explain, but in the front i just cut it flush with body and in the front, bended and tucked the flap into a piece of existing metal on the frame/ body. For the rears, i drilled a hole thru the liner and metal frame (think it's a body mount) and just secured it with 1/2" bolt and washer. You could just use a bolt in the front too.

I may just have to bite the bullet and buy the metalcloak fender liner set

No flapping at highway speeds. A little bit flaps near the bottom close to the door and same with the rear fenders but nothing to major.
