So I've been looking at the bw fender flares my only concern is how do they hold up against trees and other brush???

 

don't know if i'd agree with steel being the way to go. i've seen plenty of them and even xenon flares hold up great but then transfer all the engergy of the hit into the body leaving damage there.

i've run BW flarea and think they look great and as mentioned, if you hit your BW flares hard enough, it will tear away from its substructure which, in my opinion, is better than doing body damage. if taking a hit is a concern, i would recommend just running a set of cut down factory fenders. this is ultimately what i've done and not only do they look great, they are essentially free and do awesome on the trail. they bend and fold around trees and rocks and if hit hard enough, just get pulled away from the body. after you pick it back up, you just snap it back in. ask me how i know

 

Isn't there a few manufactures out there that have are quick removable to give you the option of just removing 6-8 screws per flare to go narrower

 

there are a couple, one is a steel fender that comes off and the other is plastic option. my question to everyone who think this is a good idea is, where do you store your fenders when you're wheeling? hell, i have a hard enough time trying to figure out where to store my stupid mud flaps in a packed full of gear jeep once i get to the trailhead.

 

I'm looking at trailmods fenders now, because I broke my bushwackers.

 

all i can say is that you really should give them a good, hard and close up look in person if you can before spending any money.

 

XRC fenders! I hear they are tough! And look great!

 

Unfortunately that's not possible, because I am one of the few over here who drives a modified JK. Maybe you share me your thoughts on these fenders (pm maybe)?

 

That's why I wheel with 4 dr guys they have more room !!

 

LOL!! i own two 4-doors and never have enough room.
