Just added them to mine, paid $480 for the set of 4. Also, I have the 3 piece rear bumper so I ordered the extra parts to make the flares match up to the rear bumper.

as far as the lighting goes, all the lights work properly except it being able to turn on the white led drl without turning on the market lights. Tried with my programmer and nothing.

for those of you that have done the fender swap, and successfully hooked up the lights, where do you plug the amber side marker light harness into? iirc, the Sport lights are all controlled by one harness. the rubi lights have separate lights in the fenders with separate harnesses. i see the main light harness is the same as the Sports. where does the corner/amber harness plug into?

They legit just plug in.

my bumper is what they call the 3 piece bumper, the side pieces come off and there’s different ones depending on which flares you have. I believe I got that one since I have the sensors in my bumper.

anyway once you add rubi fenders you’ll see the side panels on the bumper no longer match up with the flare.

Just buy aftermarket bumpers. They look better, are better and are much cheaper (depending).

were these installed on a Sport? I see the LED turn signals are they plug and play or was additional wiring harness needed and can you enable the LEDsto work or is dealer programming needed.

thinking of doing this and running 35 as an interim before doing a full lift. TIA

I’m assuming you have a plastic bumper like most us us with Sport/Sport S.
Can you elaborate on the parts you ordered? Were they the end caps? Simple swap?

itoo have the Tazer mini so it’s as simple as using the LED enable function? I upgraded to the Mopar factory LED headlights Which the dealer enabled. I’m wondering if that will automatically enable the LED DRL or if using the Tazer will be required - hoping it doesn’t mess with the headlights?

Loving the color matched high-line Rubi fender flares, but as others have pointed out, I see two issues and would love advice: 1. the rear bumper mismatch looks weird and 2. the hood clips on the sport don't line up perfectly with the indentation on the Rubi fenders. Any ideas?

@Turbo_punkn I ordered new end caps and the inner brace.

It looks like I would assemble the end cap to the brace/bracket with the white retainer clips /screws hardware AND mount The assembled brace/end cap to the bumper by the 4 screws? Is it that simple or is it more involved
