Looks great! I want to do this with my stock diesel sport altitude and put 35s on. You are running stock tires wheels and suspension, correct?

I have 1.5 rear 2.0 front spacer lift. Stock wheels and Willy’s tires. Plan on putting 315/70R/17 on the stock wheels.

so I wound ordering these and im in the process of installing them. I trimed the inner fender liner and it says to reuse OE push rivets to reinstall. Except there is only 3 mounting points left on the inner fender. Only 1 uses the push rivet (towards the front). The other 2 mounts are the metal brackets attached to the body, but those are bolt in. And looks like I need the metal retaining clips off the OE fender?
How did you do this? Im thinking I mightve messed up trimming my fender, but it looks exact to their diagram.

Front or rear fender? I ordered inner fenders when I did mine they hadn’t come yet but I can tell you if you trimmed right

I started with the front right, however I abandoned it for now and put the OE fender back on until I figure out what to do with the liner. I snapped some pics, but its back on the jeep with the OE Flare mounted.
first 3 pics are the only attachment points that are left after the trim and only the very front one works with the new fender bc it reuses the push rivet. The top 2 are bolted to the OE flare. There are 2 foward holes on those mounts that can kind of be used for push rivets but they dont hold very well. The rear push rivet is directly attached to the OE Flare and is gone with the Bushwacker flare.
the 4th image is the huge gap that is left after I trimmed. Its even worse with the bushwacker flare bc its much higher up. Im thinking of just ordering the paramount inner liners but if I did this right and thats what it should look like, Im kinda disappointed in it

It was easy enough to remove the liner since most of the attachment points are gone. So here is where I trimmed and also for reference the image from the instructions.

I like the look and would definitely look at these for a sport or willys, but what’s up with the fit on the side marker lights.

I put a halt on it. My recommendation is get new inner fender liners as reusing the existing isnt ideal.
im not big on the aluminum inner liners mostly bc of cost. seems like money better spent elsewhere. If youre like me, look into the paramount automotive ones. Fronts and rears are 145 each for the pairs.
