Default Body Armor Extreme Rock Rails

I am thinking about purchasing these. Anyone have any experience with them? I am on a tight budget right now so i cannot spend too much and these are only $300. Smittybilt hase some also but the Body Armor ones look better and I think would provide better protection....PLEASE ADVISE

Get a set of used Rubi rails for like $150 for now until you can save up for the real sliders you want. Either that or wait till you see something in the for sale section.

Yup. My smittybilt front bumper is fine due to it's simplicity, but some of their other products are suspect.

I've just learned that I'm not going to buy something for the JK just to have something. As with most other things, you honestly get what you pay for with most mods...

anybody bought these yet? i'm about to pull the trigger and buy a set. i put on a set of the rockcrawler side guards from body armor this spring, and i was pretty impressed with them. i'm looking at the the extreme rock rails now because 1) my jeep got wrecked and i need to hide some body damage, and 2) the rockcrawler side guards did get damaged in the wreck. i was quite satisfied with them for the price. they held up VERY nicely on the trail.
