Most aftermarket liners should work easily for you without having to hack away. The Ace liners attached via 2 existing bolts at the top center, than with a small self tapping screw by the front body mount, and another towards the rear section of the liner…..both very easily accessible. They are a 10 minute install. I think most of the 1-piece designs are about the same. Back in the day it seemed the options were mutli-piece designs from PSC and Crawler Conceptz, but once manufactures figured out a solid 1-piece design, they started flooding the market. Now inner liners are as cheap as ~150 compared to the $350+ options. I think the only 1-piece design that might be a headache for application would be the Aries. They have a different look which is kind of nice, but they attach via many more spots.

I got my Ace liners bare, and then powder coated them to match my other things.




You can get those with or without the LED marker light. TBH, none of these are really functional pieces. You could argue some venting will help the engine bay, but they are all hiding the ugliness behind em. They don’t have to be super pricey.

 

x2 on Ace inner fenders. I have put them through a ton of punishment and they still look brand new. I also like the holes to help cool engine compartment. Like said above, installation was a breeze. And little I install on the Jeep is ever a breeze.

 

I have the smittybuilt xrc flat fenders and rough country inner liners. Fit together great and covers the gap in the body well. There is one bolt I had to leave out, but it's not been an issue. I also have 35's on stock wheels and 1.25" spacers with no rubbing issues up front.

 

Ace. You just need freakishly small hands to get the led lights in.

 

I have the DV8 inners, I really like the look over the others but they rattled like crazy until I came up with a cutting and taping solution. If I could redo it, I might go Ace. They look great to me and the one piece looks like less rattle...

 

I've got the Ace inners as well, they're pretty sweet. Get a little rubbing at flex and steering lock, even though I'm still stock otherwise. But they bend out of the way well enough that you can just lean on them hard and get that tiny bit of extra room.

 

FYI, I have the same issue on the DV8's. 35's and 4.5 Backspace

 

Y, when I had 4.5" BS, I rubbed every so slightly......just enough to very lightly scratch my powder coat. Never bent the liner at all though. Current 3.5" BS is no issue at all as one would expect. I had a buddy with the CC liners and same issue. I think the only ones that look like have more clearance are the Aries as they are a bit more form fitting, similar to the factory plastic liners.

 

I literally have the exact same setup. Ace inner fender liners and Genright flare deletes. Love the way the Jeep looks without the flares.
