Aftermarket Fender Flares for JL Wrangler?

[TTEChris]

Looks good, but what's the purpose/advantage of the goofy cut out on the rears? Looks uneven all the way across. Also, you could make the fronts have a slide bend to them in the middle, maybe give a tad more room when flexin.. just an idea..

I like the fenders, but I'm also not a big fan of the "vent" on the rear of the front.

I really love the look/clearance of these bodyguard fenders, but they look a little weak with just the gussets holding the outer fender in place. Not to mention I don't like how the body color is visible through the "gaps". They would have been much nicer as one solid piece.

Wonder if anyone will offer "full coverage" flares for those who don't like snow and slush making a much on the side of the jeep....

Thank you,

Bushwacker will be out soon with a flat fender in plastic with 1" additional coverage. Waiting on them for that very reason.

That and PA can be sticklers at times over coverage. Generally only when its blatant.

Powder coated gloss black flares. Actually not the ones I wanted but turned out nice.

Looks nice man! Whats your setup? (Life kit size, type/Wheels size, type?)

3.5" Metalcloak gamechanger with 37s?

Thanks bud. It’s a 4” Skyjacker on 37x22s. Could fit 40s with these fenders, but the axles might not hold. Not that I’m going off-road, she’s a mall crawler.

Metalcloak teased theirs which I do like

Ok, I'm sold. I know it's not the stock DRL, but I like how they integrated a shorter DRL on the front.

Where did you get those fenders?

They look like the same EAG ebay fenders I have.

I believe they are on Amazon now too.

Those look great with the inner liners! Makes me regret gutting my factory fenders.
How well do the steps line up with the fenders? Being as slim as they are, does it make the steps look out of place? It looks fantastic from that angle.

I have the cheap EAG ebay fenders. And I didn't mount the ROAM side steps/sliders until after I swapped my fenders out. So I don't know how good they line up with the stock fenders.

But here's a few more angles.

Thanks for the photos. They follow the lines of the factory Rubicon fenders really well. I think those "cheap" flares look great especially for what they cost!

They aren't bad at all.

The inner fenders costed almost twice as much as the cheap EAG fender set did. lol

Tried to use the factory liners - but the fronts just would not work. Too much of a gap toward the rear of the wheel well. It could work, in theory, if you were good at softening up plastic and completely remolding it.
