funny, i love my trimmed plastic fenders as they can take hard hits all day long and the most that happens it that they fold over and pop right back to its original shape. conversly, i have seen xenon flares (which are made out of a very hard plastic) take a hit and while it still looked great, the energy from the hit transfered right to the body and damaged it. i do like the look of the poison spyder fenders though.

oh, i should mention that if you're planning to color match your flares, the xenons look really nice painted. brainchild just got a set and colormatched them to his sunburst orange JK and it looks sweet

I don't know...I would think twice about painting your flares because you may get ridiculed for having a soccer mom, mall crawler, urban vehicle!!!!
