We're going to included a set on these on the pre-orders complimentary. Since we already tested the material and it works for Rocker Armor we know it will be great for the Corner Armor... and pre-order folks will make a good test market group.

What do you guys think of Gecko Skins? If we use our Gecko to logo this item we're probably going with that product name.

if you need a canadian tester to see how these and the liners hold up. let me know. Ill do it for a discounted price.

I need more money. You just added a product on my list to buy. Cant wait. Im starting to save now!

I am 20, I like the round taillights, dont need the slider bar. I like the minimalistic look, i could even do without the flares. But dont need a license plate bracket. I love the look of the armor you all built. Very nice job!

Default so what is the msrp for with and with out the rails, also could you get them as blank

so what is the msrp for with and with out the rails, also could you get them as blanks(with out cuts for lights)
I was consdering using the factory taillights...I know ez target to get ripped off on the trail, Or using my own taillight kit.

These should run the full length all the way down the dog leg,

Will you have a gasket or how will it hold againt rain and salt

Any pics with factory flair?
Are you planning on making a bolt on flair out of steel,that can be replaced if damaged.
how will these work with the factory tire mount?

I AM ALL ABOUT THESE!!!

We are going to do one in early June, shipping early July. We're catching up with existing orders while experimenting with different liner configuration.

Super. I'll keep an eye out for the announcement and start the "Strainger's corner armor fund."

It's almost like I pimped you for this reply (WHICH I DID NOT!!!). We are with you on having to cut out sheet metal from your jeep. Similar to JK Mikey's response, we are making these to fit your JK with out cutting, they are not what most have seen being simple plate design. These are actually engineered to mold to the JK body. You will have to drill for the nutserts, and in some spots they are through bolted.


Thanks, looking forward to this one for sure.

Am I wrong to assume they will come powder coated, or will there be a bare steel option?
