Default Pure Jeep Rocker Guards & Aftermarket Fenders???

I was curious if anyone on here has experience with aftermarket front/rear fenders with the combination of PureJeep rocker guards? I have been looking at the Overkill Engineering fender sets, but looks like I'd have to do some heavy mods to make them work together. It's not that I'm not willing to do it, just wondering how much work I'd be in for.

I've also thought of just selling my PureJeep guards, but would have to patch up the holes I drilled and install something over them to cover up the patchwork.

any thoughts???

i'd say you keep the sliders to pair with the overkill fenders and also go with some sort of narrow tube fenders in the rear. That's exactly what i am attempting to do as well. I recently installed the overkill classic front fenders and bushwacker rear flats (not my first choice, but keeps me somewhat in compliance with law). I am going with the purejeep sliders next. You then wouldn't have to worry about the existing holes, except for drilling new ones in the overkill sides. however, you might encounter some difficulty with the overkill front fenders due to the hood cowls being welded to the oem front quarter panels. I turned the work over to a body shop which also painted the fenders and they actually had to cut the weld spots and then bolt the cowls to the new overkill fenders. It wasn't the best or most precise fit, but i am very happy with the results.
